That sounds like a very effective policy for driving people away.
That sounds like a pretty bold statement without any real back-up ;-)
The Esperanto has uppercase-letters for family-names, only one example.
Asian, Hebrew and Arabic Wikipedias need a different look for the Interface
because they don't write left->right like we do.
It would certainly not drive *me* away -- quite to the
contrary, it
would encourage me to contribute more on non-English Wikipedias.
I doubt you really have enough time to contribute to more than one or
two WPs.
