Not so much. There has been an issue for five years, IMX, and a "review" that
concluded that starving the wiki of resources, and, more importantly, of respect by staff
has left a mess is not a long job. Just rationalising it away is cheap, in all senses of
the world. Besides, it could be useful, and a plus for fundraising, with TLC.
For QRpedia, current and potential usage is far wider
than the UK.
Discussing its maintenance and long term future should be widely
promoted and can easily justify a specific WMF funding case.
For QRpedia, I would agree that a tech review now would be a good idea.
