We could organize a page to improve these articles - maybe a WikiProject. Yes, all these articles are totally a mess.
Regarding organizations, there is this template box http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Open_navbox We can expand it. At the Portuguese Wikipedia I've started a Free Culture WikiProject <http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikip%C3%A9dia:Projetos/Cultura_livre> a few years ago, but it is anactive (and with this awful design). It'd be better to organize all this in the English Wikipedia and then translate them. Although for translating there will be some controversies, like the use of the word "open" (aberto, in Portuguese) or "free" (livre, in Portuguese). Regarding knowledge, I think the term "free" suits better the comprehension and I use in some cases, like "conhecimento livre" for "open knowledge", instead of "conhecimento aberto". But some term we continue using "open" ("ciência aberta", "recursos educacionais abertos", "dados abertos" etc.) because it is what people are already used to.
