I more like United Nations style than that of federal government and states in the United States. We probably should reflect the opinion of each edition not convey the central opinion to each.
Well, I think that this analogy is stretched, but some things like NPOV and Wikipedia is an encyclopedia (not a joke book, not political propaganda, etc.) are non-negotiable. I'll also stick up for the rights of individual contributors to NPOV articles even under the risk of going against their government or popularity in their home country.
At the same time, I do recognize the need for local variation due to cultural differences, etc.
So I think that the "Federal" model is better than the "UN" model. But I really don't care for the analogy much, particularly not in these times of global tension.
