I merely suggest that the reality is that the majority of volunteers take a certain view of themselves (that they are Wikpedians first and foremost ), and that the ones who take a different view of themselves (that they are Wikmedians first and foremost) are in the minority. That is a proposition which is capable of being tested: I have not done that test. If it were to turn out to be true, as I sugest it is, that would not be to "deny the minority", it would simply be to state that the minority turns out as a matter of fact to be a minority.
