It is already so. For example, we have {{ll|IRC channel cloaks|IRC channel cloaks}} for different Wikimedia projects, and we also have "wikimedia/" cloaks. At least on Freenode, we can have a Wikimedia community.

(English) This is an essay. It expresses the opinions and ideas of some Wikimedians but may not have wide support. This is not policy on Meta, but it may be a policy or guideline on other Wikimedia projects. Feel free to update this page as needed, or use the discussion page to propose major changes.

This page is about community, about interactions between users through wiki projects. Formerly this page opened with the question, "Is Wikipedia really a community?" Now, the situation is much broader.

This obsolete diagram shows not-Wikipedia projects as part of the Wikipedia community. It is obsolete because such projects attract users who are not from Wikipedia, and users who contribute much more to those projects than they do to Wikipedia.
This is an attempt to show a Wikimedia community partitioned into different projects, perhaps ignoring that some users contribute to multiple projects.
Users from en.wikipedia, de.wikipedia, and fr.wikipedia effectively own the 2004 Board election. Click image to zoom.
