The point of having it on the foundation wiki is that it would be very
easy to add to the whitelist the filetypes which the leaflets and
presentations are in, since only trusted users can upload there. On
Meta, anyone can upload files, so it is less likely that these
filetypes would be whitelisted there.

There are 41 users on the foundation wiki and 44 admins on meta, so
even if there was a way to limit uploading of certain file types to
admins, it wouldn't make much different in terms of the number of
people able to do this.
