Overall I like the statement on wiki. Quick question though: "rigorous research" can be very time consuming, very expensive, and probably difficult to do well given Wikimedia's vast number of languages, number of projects, and multiple platforms. Could this be made more nuanced?
Other than that, I like what I see here.
