I cant believe my eyes that you Yann say this. How in the God sake you 
can forsee such thing about Montenegrin wikipedia? Montenegrin wikipedia 
gives bad image of Wikimedia? This statement that you did give bad image 
to WMF.  You don't have any  argument to say this and to support your 
statement.
Please elaborate this on Montenegrin request for Wikipedia.

Wikipedia is multilingual and multicultural project, without that WMF 
don't have right to use that statement. What was done with Montenegrin 
request is just showing what kind of lobbying is possible on WMF.
