Gerard, I don't think we currently register wikipedia.cn or 维基百科.cn<http://%e7%bb%b4%e5%9f%ba%e7%99%be%e7%a7%91.org/>or 维基百科.org <http://%e7%bb%b4%e5%9f%ba%e7%99%be%e7%a7%91.org/>. When the new ICANN policies are in place, as I understand it, there will be four new domains possible: wikipedia.c?n?, wikipedia.o?r?g?, 维基百科.c?n?<http://%e7%bb%b4%e5%9f%ba%e7%99%be%e7%a7%91.org/>and 维基百科.o?r?g? <http://%e7%bb%b4%e5%9f%ba%e7%99%be%e7%a7%91.org/>... which of these are you suggesting using?
