The study of the effects of no IP editing strongly reiterated this conclusion based on the data: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IP_Editing:_Privacy_Enhancement_and_Abuse_Mitigation/IP_Editing_Restriction_Study/Portuguese_Wikipedia Portuguese Wikipedia is largely dominated by Brazilians. Brazil has some of the highest social media use per capital in the world, so part of the underlying reality is that PT Wikipedia users are probably unusually willing to sign up for new services. This probably explains why in Portuguese making people sign up didn’t result in fewer unreverted edits, whereas when we tried even *suggesting* IP editors should sign up in other wikis, it didn’t work: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Value_of_IP_Editing#Past_trials_of_this_idea_were_damaging For starting a new general knowledge wiki, it’s a terrible idea to require registration if you want to actually grow. > > On Sun, Sep 17, 2023 at 11:52 PM WereSpielChequers > wrote: > > > > Yesterday they had less than a hundred edits from just 6 individuals. > The English language Wikipedia had around 150,000 edits.

There are Wikis that have "succeeded" with IP editing turned off with some being WikEM and Eyewiki Additionally PT Wikipedia banned IP editing in 2020 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2020-11-01/News_and_notes Not sure how the later is going.

Yesterday they had less than a hundred edits from just 6 individuals. The English language Wikipedia had around 150,000 edits. Justapedia needs a much bigger community for it to become more than a mirror. They've switched off IP editing, one of the mistakes citizendium made, so unless they relaunch themselves as the home of alternative medicine and alternative facts, I agree with Galder, they are unlikely to succeed.

Aside from the whole idea of a neutrality policy that thinks Wikipedia wasn't neutral on either Climate Change or Covid19, and a board that is 60% founders votes rather than the 9% of the WMF. Justapedia doesn't want breaking news of anything that has happened in the last 7 days. https://justapedia.org/wiki/Justapedia:Justapedia_Foundation#About My prediction is that if the site does get any traction, and there are millions of antivaxxers and climate change deniers who might well prefer it to Wikipedia, the 7 day thing will bite them hard. When famous people die, Wikipedia gets extra visitors to those pages. If Justapedia had been around at the time of Michael Jackson's death, or of Osama Bin Laden's, this policy alone would have led to conflict, or been quickly abandoned. Here in the UK there will be a General Election in the next 17 months, a large number of Wikipedia articles will be updated very quickly with the results, probably including a new Prime minister. If Justapedia is still around for the next UK General Election, and if it has taken even 1% of Wikipedia's audience and community, then either this policy will be abandoned or the people who enforce it will have to revert loads of edits by newbies. Justapedia may not want "thought police" and may aspire to be collegial "The Justapedia Foundation firmly believes in maintaining a collegial environment for our volunteers" https://justapedia.org/wiki/Justapedia:Justapedia_Foundation#Community but this policy alone will make them a non collegial place, even if they succeed in recruiting a community of people who share their views on Climate Change and Covid19. I'm aware that there are deep tensions within our community, and not just between the on and off wiki components. I wasn't surprised to see a new fork come forth, and if the intent, remit and design had been different then I might well have created an account there and at the least had a foot in both camps. As it is, I can't see Justapedia becoming something I would like to donate my time to. But then I doubt they'd want me anyway given that I accept the science on Climate Change and Covid19..
