Wikipedia servers are run by The Wikimedia Foundation. The wikipedias themselves are run by their own communities



The local communities can be (and have been) overridden on policies by the WMF. They aren't sovereign. It all comes down to the WMF, ultimately. They have final say on everything. Local language communities are more like users of the site, from a legal perspective.
