At some point, if we believe our community is our greatest asset, we
have to think of Wikipedia as infrastructure not only for creating high
quality articles, but also for generating and sustaining a high quality
editing community. My sense is that the Wiki* communities are down with
goal #1, but goal #2 is not on their radar at all.
So we probably need an employee dedicated to this. (I think? Arguments?)
He would be quite busy (and polyglot!) to keep an eye over the community
of +800 projects.
