A nice success story ..

A German language draft article about Hinchinbrook Island was created
during the SLQ workshop in Ingham, and recently it was found and
promoted by a "Traveletti", a relatively new 'wikipedian' who started
in March 2011 and has only 338 edits to German Wikipedia and only 417
edits to English Wikipedia.

My guess is they found the draft via a Google search and decided to
work on it.  It looks like they do one or two small projects each
month. Very cool demonstration of the disconnected micro-payments of
volunteer effort that eventually culminate in a functioning project
like Wikipedia.
