Are there any reasons that http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Proposal:Develop_systems_for_accuracy_rev... should not be adopted as a Foundation engineering goal?
Is there anywhere in https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Engineering/2014-15_Goals where it fits in?
I am not a fan of neglecting low hanging fruit, especially when it is characterized as something positive, like narrowing focus, fleshing out a narrative, goal alignment, or managing scope. So much money is coming in from contributors who deserve and could have so much more if the Foundation leadership was more ambitious and less distracted by incremental but relatively burdensome improvements to existing solutions like the visual editor and talk page redesigns.
