It launched to modest fanfare last year, but I hadn't seen much about it since. It looks like their main focus has been batch imports of content from other sources, including lots of full journal articles automatically quasi-formatted for the wiki. Actual human edits seem to be minimal, though. Compare all edits (dominated by automatic imports) versus mainspace edits (which trickle in slowly): http://wiki.medpedia.com/Special:RecentChanges?namespace=0&limit=500&title=Special%3ARecentChanges http://wiki.medpedia.com/Special:RecentChanges?namespace=&limit=500&title=Special%3ARecentChanges -Sage _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
