Different people in the movement are involved in different things, all
of which are required for the projects to be as big a success as they
can be.

I do not think it is actually correct. It is true that many editors might not care about any particular initiative - same way as they do not care for example about arbcom elections. However, if we take Wiki Loves Monuments as an example of a chapter-initiated activity - well, many editors liked it and actively participated, and may had strong feelings - positive or negative - about organization and results.
