Please answer my previous question: you are really in the position of
ruling all wikipedia-xx channels? I mean, wikipedia-de, wikipedia-fr
or wikipedia-ja ...... in my observation most of those channels have
sane community, even not all, and I am afraid your claim for your
right of jurisdiction for wikipedia-* (it is a very strong assertion)
is too megalomaniac.
