Since I am entirely unofficial, and not in charge of anything anywhere, I can afford to tell you what *I* think:
If this was such a cool idea, you'd have had half a dozen Really Important People jumping all over it by now, and you wouldn't have to be asking for special favors.
Fair point.
And given what you want to do with it, I don't see where the "editorial freedom" you're concerned about actually applies.
Another fair point. I guess my main goal is to have no ads. But I do believe that those companies who advertise on Extrapedia would :)
So I -- as I suspect, many others -- will assume there's something... odd going on here.
What do you mean "odd"? I am just suggesting Extrapedia as an idea. I do agree this is the wrong place to discuss it. But: Maybe WikiEN-L would be an appropriate place? How can I set future emails in the thread to move to a different list? (I use Gmail.)
I'm pretty sure you need Wikia more than they need you.
I'll see how they respond.
