>>>I can think of a very labour-intensive change -- a project to raise awareness of the importance of philosophy, and what constitutes a philosophical issue, and that there are academic sources devoted to dealing with them. But that's a project that would need academic philosophers to create it. And it would be a contentious project at times, because we'd be trying to claim back certain topics from other hands -- from scientists, for example. How do we attract the philosophers back once they've gone almost entirely? I don't know. <<< How about some of the ideas I suggested earlier? Starting with a keynote statement from Jimbo, followed by some initiatives? Preferably in the media, and preferably with some modest support from WMF.
