From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

Hi, I read your vote on the Wikiversity proposal. I agree about the fact that an online university would need substantial changes in mediawiki. However, many of the authors at Wikiversity, including myself, have been writing study guides and reading lists which, in my opinion, are within the scope of Wikibooks (Check the School of Mathematics for a good example of what I mean). Some Wikibookians have argued that the Wikiversity is beyond the scope of Wikibooks because of the vision expressed by some of the authors at Wikiversity. As you seem to think that it is too early to launch Wikiversity as a separate project, can I persuade you to vote in favour of keeping it in Wikibooks for the time being? Thanks for your attention.
