Can I have clarifications on:
1. If native English speakers is "primary" audience while the non native speakers is "secondary", does that mean for you that an article on the next USA elections is OK, while an article on the next elections of Egypt (put here any other country) are irrelevant and of no interest to English Wikipedia's audience?
2. Or that a terrorist attack in USA should be more important than a terrorist attack in Nepal, if both attacks have the same number of killed or injured people?
Thank you, --Optim

OK, that has got to be the most bizarre thing I've
read in a while.
I write for *all* English speaking people. Sorry but how
can I write for a French
audience when I don't speak French?
I am a representant of your french audience. You could write for me.
I guess we will have both to see that we are not writing for the same audience. As long as you accept that some do not recognise these notions of *primary* and *secondary* as valid, while others do, that is fine.
