Excluding Wikisource? [edit]

The mission of the Wikimedia Foundation is to empower and engage people around the world to collect and develop neutral educational content under a free content license or in the public domain, and to disseminate it effectively and globally.

The current language seems to exclude Wikisource, which hosts content that is more often literary than educational (such as "The Time Machine" by H. G. Wells) and often not neutral (such as "A Vindication of the Doctrine that the Sacrifice of the Mass is Idolatry" by John Knox). Adding "or literary works" would work, though awkwardly. Perhaps we could replace "neutral educational content under a free content license" with "free content", and leave the specifics to different policies like Neutral point of view. —{admin} Pathoschild 02:15:26, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

"educational" is 'out of place' [edit]

being bold is: "The mission of the Wikimedia Foundation is to empower and engage people around the world to collect the sum of all human knowledge under a free content license and to disseminate globally." -Edbrown05 07:38, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
