Many small Village Pumps are dominated by English messages from the Wikimedia Foundation. The reason they end up that way is of course that they didn't have much activity to begin with, but are we lowering the chances they will get any by effectively making them look like spaces for WMF announcements rather than community discussions?
Compare: Non-English and/or community discussions over time, mapped against number of WMF messages and number of active editors on that wiki, as well as compare to the Village Pumps on the wikis that aren't reached by MassMessage posts.
