Yes, there are these groups, but in most wikipedias they have few persons inside it and they have almost no policy; moreover if you look for global ipblock exempt you may found that they are still vulnerable to IP and IP range blocks made locally on individual wikis (http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Global_blocks_and_bans#Global_IP_block_exemption ). so, for example, how could a chinese write on it.wiki? or, if Berlusconi's law will get approved, how could italians write freely on all wikis, if in fact there is no global ipblock exempt?
