…which seems like a much better way to generate summaries, honestly. Pull in human-written ones, and expand the simple version as necessary.

Simple English is for people who would like a simpler language. I’m advocating for reduced *scope* – or at least better organization of detail. Move stuff that’s irrelevant in the great scheme of things to subpages or pages with narrower scope, instead of writing one single compendium on a topic. I feel like the English Wikipedia is already better at this. In the German, on the other hand, the first sentence sometimes contains multiple lines of etymological derivations of the article’s title before it even mentions what it’s about (as soon as I stumble upon one of these monstrosities again, I’ll report the example here).
