Sharing, because I had to look up Abstract Wikipedia

Abstract Wikipedia is an in-development project of the Wikimedia Foundation. It aims to use Wikifunctions to create a language-independent version of Wikipedia using its structured data.

It sounds interesting but who in the world is going to write article in the abstract wiki? It doesn't seem at all accessible.
