It would be great to see a version of these 10 principles that don't mention WM explicitly, but define the precepts we follow. Then we could encourage similar projects to follow the same, in contributing to an Access to Knowledge coalition. The case for zero-rating free knowledge is much stronger when it's applied to a constellation of sources. [[user:sj|SJ]] [[user talk:sj|+]] 22:39, 1 December 2014 (UTC) |

Phrasing so they could be 10 principles of any similar A2K program
