Speaking personally: you seem to be confusing the Wikimedia movement with the "now that we've got the world's eyeballs, what things make us sad?" movement. It would, practically speaking, never be appropriate for us to spend page impressions or chunks of page impressions on this kind of advocacy - I say "practically" because, while things might alter slightly if it turned out editors were leaving in droves due to poverty, this seems...'ludicrously unlikely' doesn't cover it. James, I appreciate that you care a lot about these issues. But please stop trying to use the movement as your personal soapbox. _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l
