I am in favour of other kind of "NewsPedia" - the news about all
Wikipedias, with language versions with _all_ major languages of
Wikipedias.
Something along the lines of the deceased Wikipedia:Wikipedia NEWS.
I think that it is essential to foster cooperation and unification
between Wikipedias as well as to open, at last, a proper avenue for
information exchange between Wikipedias.
We want to have one unified project, don't we ?

Kpjas.
