Inspired by WikiPedia, I started an similar project for my local Esperanto group. It uses real html.

If you are interested in or if you have any suggestions, just give me a hint! -- norman.werner@student.uni-magdeburg.de

Please post the address of your wiki, please!

TimShell is working on an enormous "Cliff Notes"-style summary of AynRand's book AtlasShrugged. We have also been graced with an enormous entry about ErnestHemingway.

We've added some RulesToConsider for you to consider, sign, modify, and add to. But those of you who don't like rules can go about your business. Ain't wiki great? :-)

TimShell found this cool image file:

I uploaded it to the server. I suspect we should resave it as a different file type.

I have also uploaded LarrysText to the server, so now WikiPedia has a veritable boatload of philosophical content. Now all we have to do is wikify it and remove the bullshit. :-) -- LarrySanger

I am adding a page called NobelPrize, where we can list all the winners by category, and eventually fill in with short biographies.

We're up to 617 pages. Very many of these have substantial and what appears to be reliable information. I predict 1,000 by February 15. WikiPedia is growing steadily in breadth and depth.

WikiPedia has definitely taken a life of its own; new people are arriving every day and the project seems to be getting only more popular. Long live WikiPedia!
