I really love the idea of having different renderers for the content based on other considerations than language - to make things easier to read for certain people, to use the content in novel and creative ways, etc.
I think that this would indeed be a considerable boost to make knowledge more accessible for many more people!
Thanks for that thought, SJ!

Hello Abstractipedia! There is so much we can do together.
I think often of how commercial encyclopedias have shifted to making materials for children; and how essential it is to support the next generation of knowledge sharers and take seriously engaging with their discovery process.
Having renderers for simplified (lang), and resolving the age old challenge of how to think of 'simplified' as a toggle or slider for all languages, will be particularly satisfying.
