I don't think they would if you had it redirect to
the Swedish
Wikipedia. Wikipedia is for languages, not countries.
Please see, for example,
This is taking NPOV to the extreme... 99% of all
people living in
Sweden except to get to a site in Swedish when they go to a website
with the ending .se, probably most Swedish Finns would go to
www.wikipedia.se (and surely not
sv.wikipedia.org) if they wanted to
find Wikipedia in Swedish, not
www.wikipedia.fi. But as I have said
numerous times, this is another discussion.
The question is: "Is it possible to get Wikimedia to pay for the
domain name
www.wikipedia.se?"

All top domains I search for are redirects to
their country's primary
language, I don't see why
www.wikipedia.se shouldn't. In fact, since
wikipedia.fi is, that would be pure discrimination. Especially since
Swedish is far more widespread in Finland than Finnish is in Sweden.
Maybe they should therefore be updated to provide proper portal
facilities...unless there's a chapter in that country in which case surely
they ought to be doing something with "their site"?
