Seconded.

If we change one it should be wikipedia.org and wikipedia.com should
stay a redirect.

As for different information, I believe wikimedia.org should be the
one with information about the organisation(s) and possibly the
projects.

Oscar and Erik did ask me to think about it a long time ago, and I
never found the time.
