Hi,
This already exists. It's called Indymedia : http://www.indymedia.org.

I didnot follow very well...but I am a little bit worried Could anyone explain to me what is precisely meant in this bunch of mails about indymedia ?
I sure would not agree that wikipedia current news are given by indymedia. Though I support indymedia, I think they sure are to biaised to fit in the wikipedia frame. And on the fr wiki, that would likely be done by Yann.
Excuse me here Yann, but though you are really a good wikipedian and did *great work* on the fr wikipedia, I hope you admit you have a rather strong biais, as can be seen in the nuclear-related articles . I sure hope that (with Francis maybe) you give us some good *neutral* articles on activism, anarchism and the such, but I'll tell you plain, articles such as the Activiste one that you wrote some time ago (http://fr.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Activiste&oldid=34251) are just way out of line. In particular the end of the article
''L�exemplarit� est la force des activistes. De contre-mod�les en contre-pouvoirs, face � l�ennui, quels r�ves croyaient vous que vont suivre vos enfants ? Ils seront lass�s de plus en plus t�t, blas�s et aigris. Quelle que soit leur classe sociale, ils se tourneront vers les seuls qui proposent de vivre ses id�es et de les d�fendre, vers ceux qui pensent la collectivit� et l��-venir. Ils suivront ceux qui leur proposent une vrai identit� : �tre humain. Enfin ils les imiteront, ou plut�t ils tenteront leurs propres exp�riences. Ce qui est certain et que de moins en moins nombreux seront les insensibles et les d�missionnaires, ils auront tous go�t� � la libert�, ils ne l�oublieront que difficilement. Alors il est souhaitable que la soci�t� prenne acte et accompagne son propre changement de paradigme politique. Il faut commencer � lib�rer les espaces et permettre � ces activistes de vivre sans �tre des parasites. Ils repr�sentent la seule mani�re de faire une politique avec un sens : �tre responsable de ses actes et apprendre � partager. Privil�gi�s, votre Monde merveilleux n�est ni politiquement, ni humainement possible acceptez le ! ! !''
You may find that fun, I don't think it is. No, seriously !
