[Foundation-l] just wondering, are we going to take down en.wikipedia.org?

[Mateus Nobre]

Wikipedia just can make protests when we're talking things which could affect the integrity of website.

If we take down for political reasons, will not be long to take down for religious reasons and others opinionated reasons.

Neutrality is a pillar of Wiki. My opinion is to only manifest ourselves when our Wikimedia is in existencial danger.
