On the other hand "we" would theoretically only protect against a very
specific type of accident under specific circumstances.
The whole idea is a bit dubious, and would probably work best if
editors just formed an "association of Wikipedians" amongst themselves
that had nothing to do with the foundation. They could chip in as much
as they liked, and then spend it helping each other out of
Wikipedia-caused mishaps. If you're not a member, you'd get no
