For a wiki of the size and reach of the pywiki to attract only ~ 20 new Editors in all of 2017 is an abysmal failure. The people responsible for this disaster are the wiki admins of course (Lemburg et. al.), who run the place as if they were bosses of it and they owned the wiki like a cotton

AS a no-more-then-tangential reply I will point out in the defence of anyone who might be held responsible for not "plan[ning] to mitigate this dire situation," that the site content is maintained entirely by volunteers. It's possible that our current approach won't scale, but it's equally likely
