I should have been clearer that if people want to spend their time doing that, fine. But there are other things on Wikipedia that need doing more urgently. Trans-wikiiing or moving stuff around is laudable, but is a sideshow to the core aim of producing and improving the quality of the online encyclopedia (as opposed to the online travel guide or hotel guide or whatever). The problem is that this sort of exhortation tends to fail when a volunteer workforce is involved. And I am aware that it is possible for different online freely licensed sites to work together in synergy, exchanging material as needed, but it still feels like a distraction from the core activities.
