Hoi,
It may be that you have requested this somewhere. And it may be that 
this was at this very mailinglist, but when you want to ask ALL the 
wikis than it is an effort that is blind sided because there is more to 
all these wikis than just wikipedia. I am sure that I did not notice 
anything like this on the wiktionary mailing list.

Consequently I do not know how you measure support ..

Thanks,
