No one on MeatballWiki tries to define the values of a community. It is, however, a group of people who analyze, discuss and build online communities. Many of them are experts in this area. Learning from what others have done (and not done) is not the same as looking to others to define Wikipedia.
There's a rich history from older wiki communities and projects that we can, and should, draw upon, just as we draw upon existing sources for encyclopedia articles.
