Dear Wouter,
I can't help but disagree. In my opinion, using Proto-Indo-European for the new Wikipedia is the only viable option. Additional benefit: we could finally close many redundant editions of Wikipedia like en:, fr:, es: ....

I like this thread and it's logical conclusion - eliminating those languages that have gotten too big for their own boots and returning to the fundamentals.
In the case of all italic peoples, it would mean abandoning Italian - which represents the esparanto of the Italian peninsula of the middle ages - and returning to the first true literary form of the vulgar italic idioms - which we all know is SICILIAN!!
Un populu mittitilu a catina Spugghiatilu Atttupatici a vucca, E` ancora libiru.
Livatici u travagghiu U passaportu A tavula unni mancia U lettu unni dormi, E` ancora libiru.
Un populu Diventa poviru e servu, Quannu ci arrobbanu la lingua Addutata di patri: E` persu di sempri.
Diventa poviru e servu Quannu li paroli nun figghianu paroli E si mancianu tra d'iddi...

Surely no one would classify the above as being POV, would they?
