Serious question: what initiatives would you want to see Wikipedia taking on?

It seems like their editor for Wikipedia pages is "good enough", so a maintenance mode wouldn't be uncalled for.

I'd like to see them sit on their money and run their network in maintenance mode forever rather than rashly spend it and risk the loss of one of the biggest core resources to modern society to overspending. Wikipedia certainly doesn't need to beg users for money with big intrusive banners, they just need to cut excess costs!

The Craigslist model.

An amazingly effective model, if unglamorous.
