I won't even get into that. The idea that slightly different ideas about
what the perfect Wikipedia would be in the far future is enough to make
you leave is, frankly, bizarre.
Perhaps. Of course we can have different goals, and that should not be
much of a problem as in the great majority of the cases the goals are
nevertheless in the same direction. But if it's going to be talked about
as "the goal of the project" rather than "my goal" - then I'm not
so
sure any more whether I belong here.
By the way, what I (and I suspect Ruimi) specifically
mean by having
universalism as a goal for Wikipedia is that my goal is for Wikipedia to
be applicable or common to all purposes, conditions, or situations.
Very well, I can live with that. Or at least, I can live with the way it
has till now been implemented on Wikipedia.
