Per the "slash open" project http://slashopen.net/ (see there for background), it would be a good idea to put something at http://en.wikipedia.org/open about (or to redirect that page to something about) the availability of our content as open data.
I tried raising his on WP:VPT, without much success:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)/Archive_103#...
and I started a draft at:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Slash-open
How might we progress this?
How can we set up other "top level" pages, such as /contact and /accessibility ?
Other Wikipedias and Wikimedia projects should benefit from such ages, also.

Draft such a page/define such a redirect to an existing resource and file a bug on bugzilla.wikimedia.org, Wikimedia>General.
How can we set up other "top level" pages, such as /contact and /accessibility ?
Are those standards? They look very ugly.

Sorry to miss the link before, I was moving too fast!
I've started a "participation" section, and placed it above "datasets," as I believe it is more fundamental to Wikipedia's commitment to openness. Hope others will refine it.
