You didn't get the point. It's not about their willingness. It is about the
differences of legal anvironment between US and DE. Maybe it's legal to talk
about nazism in the US and maybe you get to jail for it in germany. Maybe a
definite percent of Wikipedia articles legal in the US and illegal in DE. Do
you want to get US WIKIMEDIA sued because they are present in german law
environment? Do you want de-us.wikipedia.org and de-de.wikipedia.org for
separating articles which are not legal in germany? Having a censored mirror
maybe? (Bad words changed to stars? THere are funny ideas in the politics
field.)

IANAL, but should be taken consideration. I'm not against it. I'm not for
it. Just giving input, that's all I do.
