I have no objection to there being an article on each and every such 
school.  For the most part it is not a matter of _we_ creating it, but 
of some individual having a specific interest in doing so.  It's not a 
matter of having some collective compulsion to write an article for each 
school, but letting individuals go ahead when they are interested.

In the long term that too will be overcome.  There are many elementary 
schools so we can't expect a blanket coverage in anything less than two 
years.  We really can't predict what the quality will be like, but my 
guess is that it will be uneven for quite some time.  That would just 
show that the universe is developping as it should.
