get it while you can folks.

It is time Wikipedia moved to Europe.

Wikipedia of all places? I could tell you of a dozen more deserving entities right after waking up after a night of debauchery.

What does Wikipedia have to do with the mission statement of the HO&GRC? Isn't Wikipedia an NGO charity? I don't know how much federal funding they get. But Wikimedia isn't actually contributing to the database IIUC. They just develop the wiki software.
