I have no firm opinion about this matter.
However, I wanted to drop a short note here to thank Mark for his
report, and for his tireless work
in minor language Wikipedias. Let's speak plainly here: Mark has
annoyed a lot of people at various
times, including me, but continues to study and keep on top of what is
going on in smaller language Wikipedias,
and I for one really appreciate his work.
