You're misunderstanding. I was suggesting making a copy, thus
"import", of simple instead of a partial copy of English. For testing
a copy of some wiki is required. I'm personally quite happy testing
with a language I can't understand (avoids getting distracted reading
the text!) but many find it desirable to test with a language they
can. Enwp itself is too big for a reasonable test import, but simple
is right-sized.
Seems my concern was moot in any case... Every time I loaded it I've
only seen trashed pages like this:

But I guess this is just a result of the import being incomplete.
