Please don't! Someone (possibly you) will be locked into re-registering
yet another domain name every couple years in perpetuity, and when they
forget people will throw a fit that it's been taken over by a squatter
and old links have broken. It is simply not practical to buy up every
domain name with the word "wikipedia" in it, and every one that someone
does buy with good intentions because a maintenance burden for the
foundation.
