Interesting suggestion. I suppose eventually it might seem necessary, but I thought the appeal of wikipedia was that it was self-governing. The suggestion seems a bit like what Nupedia does already. Maybe I misunderstand you.
Sometimes we need a collaboration across national Wikipedias. Usually
national Wikipedias take from the English one but Wikipedians from, for instance, Catalonia can help with entries like
A good suggestion, I think, at least until the other wikipedias become self-sufficient. Many of the other wikipedia don't have much in the way of entries. How would it be implemented, though? I'm just leery of suggestions to impose structure on wikipedia.
