Jimmy Wales wrote in article http://campaigns.wikia.com/wiki/Mission_Statement : I was not and I still am not smart enough to figure out how to make Wikipedia work.

I have some hint: there is no intelligent participation in politic if somebody do not understand the world, but there is no understanding of the world if we do not know and understand history. Common education is mainly interested in teaching facts, but not causes.

For better understanding: in my opinion there is a big difference between providing facts and looking for goals, it is because:
 * Propaganda and/or lobbying introduce noise, that must be filtered out - historians put such a facts in its books so readers believe they are important causes, but they wasn't.
 * Cause is sometimes unclear, so some probability should be used - I newer seen that cause of some event was stated with some probability, it is important to measure difference if two causes listed apart has equal or different weight.
 * Cause may spread among much domains, so they do not belongs to one Wikipedia article, so it is harder to catch a true goal.

Distinguishing among official and true goals is extremely complex task, so it is exactly one for Wikipedia community :-) This lack of critical thinking is not our (citizens) fault because all political systems in every country has strong interest in growing up citizens they do know enough to produce high income and pay high taxes, but do not know to much to not to pay them.

Providing an open platform to research a true goals of historical events would:
 * bound hands of any malicious politicians.
 * help us meet better decisions for private live

Proposal statement: it would be enough to create special official namespace called “Cause” to motivate people to think and write much more about causes of events.

Some critic to this article would be that “it is clear for all to search for a true cause”, but bad news is : it isn't. All young people are first searching for a consistent concept of alive and world and they are currently guided by bad sources. Wikipedia and Internet in general will change a lot.
