Actually, I agree that there is really not so much potential for conflict to be worried about in the case of WT and WV. But the worries illustrate what could be an issue in community mergers.

So odds are quite high the WV versions will be imported as is, and both communities are adopting a common set of ground rules provided by the WMF.
