> The whole point of Wikifunctions is to expand capabilities beyond what Scribunto/Lua provides
The whole point of Wikifunctions is to support Abstract Wikipedia. Abstract Wikipedia deemed Scribunto/Lua as irrelevant ("out of scope", specifically) to their work.
The Google.org Fellows suggestion was to consider detaching Wikifunctions from Abstract Wikipedia, since Wikifunctions has value beyond Abstract Wikipedia's goals as a general-purpose community library of computing functions, but could still be used to serve the purposes Abstract wants from it.
Wikimedia said no to that suggestion, so here we are.
