issues with wikipedia: the branding of wikipedia is perhaps a valid complaint with wikipedia, but it isn't what drove me (as an individual) to create fsfwiki. ... it seems more like a generic critique of wikipedia. ... however, is it what drives some people to contribute to fsfwiki instead of wikipedia?

The branding is part of what has distorted Wikipedia's implementation away from scholarship and towards unsupported trivia and pop culture blogging (which as an online activity seems to attract much more traffic). spidermite 12:42, 6 June 2006 (PDT)

That's interesting - I had assumed that inclusion of significant amounts of pop culture material was a result of popular interest in those topics. Can you give an example of what you mean?
