searching are probably interested in the entymology. It's not like we
called it 'Quickipedia' or 'Upedia'.
But that implies we are getting huge numbers of people who arrive at
Wikipedia and have no idea what it is. I don't see that you would read
up on [[Wiki]] then next week come back and read up on it again. I
wonder what link it is that sends them there? If it was a link on
[[Wikipedia]], then [[Wikipedia]] would logically have at least as
many page views as [[Wiki]] does.
Google for "Wiki". The top item is the Wikipedia page [[Wiki]].
Many people don't use bookmarks/favorites. They use Google (or another
search engine). And why type "Wikipedia" when "wiki" works just as
well?
