Hi Gnangara, Is there any possibility or objection to paying someone project manage a Wikitown project? Am thinking that some local councils or business precincts would put up the funds, and a good project manager would honour ask the disclosure of interests and transparency of process inside Wikipedia. Paid photographers? Paid historians? Paid editors?
I realise this is a contentious issue, but not sure it's impossible...
