Thanks you David for forcing me to subscribe to a high volume list, just so I can receive all the responses to my non-language specific query about the intentions of wikipedia.
It's easy enough to subscribe (so you can post) but set no-mail (so you don't get a flood) and read answers on the web archive:
http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l ("Changing options and unsubscribing" - you want to change options)
http://mail.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikien-l/ (archives)
The archive is updated not too long after real time.
Sorry for not forwarding the full original message when I replied to wikien-l. I cc'd it there because the actual dispute and disputants are pretty much on en:, so it was the obvious relevant place. I see that it is about the whole project also.
