What does the current proposal do that *can't* be done on the wiki? Why do we *have* to have these non-editable pages? If it's just visual content, then that can be done on the wikis fairly straightforwardly *. If it's to add technical features (e.g. in-line contact forms etc.), then I can understand this move - it's analogous to how donate.wikimedia.org.uk isn't on-wiki as that uses technical features that the wiki can't support. My understanding is it's just the former, though, which is why this doesn't make sense to me. * The exception being the side-bars / page surround, but that's an intrinsic part of the Wikimedia/Wikipedia brand identity (it's what people recognise as 'Wikipedia' beyond the logo) so should really be kept regardless.
