[Foundation-l] STOP DOUBLE STANDARD!!! OR HYPOCRESY!!!

[mboverload]

Someone needs to tell me WHY we should have a Wikipedia or Wikinews in these
kinds of languages.

Has no one heard of duplication of effort? Why put information in languages
that are only spoken or read out of curiosity?

I guess my opinion is that it would be an utterly pointless waste of time.
No one will go to the Latin Wikipedia.  Why would they?  They already have a
Wikipedia in their native tongue that is much better and much bigger.
