Hi,
I think that SEWP was created like it is, partly by fear of creating a project openly directed to children, and I'm afraid it precisely make it not so compelling for them.
How is Simple English Wikipedia not compelling for kids? Define “not compelling.”
Well, I didn't closely

Adults as well have to learn to write on Vikidia, be they educators or not. Just as it is well know that a journalist or a scientist, which are supposed to be skilled is writing articles, often don't fit immediatly with the style that is expected on Wiki

The problem is exactly that. What is or is not appropriate for
children is an inherently *political* question, the answer to which

Actually, under Sue Gardner, the offer was that if the chapter did
change its ways, it would become a payment processor again. As a
trustee at that time, who was sent all the correspondence, this was
exactly what was put in writing.
And
for a dinner together and naturally, the discussion
came back to the fund raising and fund dissemination topic. And I asked
Sue with a sigh:Do you still think that it is not about who wins? And
she said:Yes, of cause not.
Ting Chen seems to have believed her :-(

There is a longstanding proposal to create simple language Wikipedias
in languages other than English and France, but it remains to be seen
whether
not an environmentally
friendly and responsible way to run the Wikimedia movement.
I personally went to the chapter meeting in Milan rather than insist on
attending the next Wikimania in good part because I could get there by
