would it be possible to slightly adjust your
"bylaws" and add
education as most other wikimedia chapters do?
Adding something won't help at all. The objects have to be *entirely*
charitable. If there are parts that currently aren't charitable, they
need to be removed. Adding more things that are charitable won't make
any difference.
So... the WMUK 2.0 objects were formulated to enable a registered
charity to be formed, constrained by the relationship with
Foundation, and of course UK company law (since a decision was made
to form a company - not all registered charities are companies).
I am surprised that education is missing. I must admit that I thought
the application was for an "educational charity".
