OurMedia.org may serve as a nice home for the video for an ASL-English wikipedia. It seems to have no restrictions on video size. Wikipedia can house the English text and link to the video file at OurMedia. Also for the wiki in wikipedia. Consider a video file the same as an image file in wikipedia.In Wikipedia, an image file cannot be edited other than by replacement. A video could be "edited via replacement" the same way. Words and sentences in Wikipedia are also done this way. If I change "lion" to "king of the beasts" I have essentially edited via replacement. Hhamilton
So you actually want us to create a second Wikipedia in English, the only difference from the original Enlish one being links to external ASL videos, and you wonder why people oppose this idea?
Hoi, I think that Mark said it well when he mentioned that we should have an ASL wiki and not an English/ASL wiki. I wholeheartedly agree with him. Thanks, GerardM
