        1. It would allow multiple definitions for words (not eveyone agrees with what certain words mean)
        2. It would allow some instances to focus on being apolitical or more political.
        3. It would allow all wikis to be condenced into one platform (including possibly wikis like the Arch Wiki)
        4. It would help combat censorship

          The reason Wikipedia is so good is because they are forced to use the most correct words.

          For number one, there are articles that express different voices around a topic. Definitions often have multiple sections to express different voicws. Do they not?

          I think a political project is a different beast from wikipedia. There will be some biases but not as its grounding purpose.

          The consensus is somehow already constructed by the current set up. Most people just don’t (and my feeling is that will and should not, like in the case of vaccine scienxe) participate.

          Censorship of which kind, though?
