Interesting or not? What good points do they make?

You realise that User:Vipul has contributed similarly to enWP? This
person seems to be essentially the only contributor there. Such a wiki
can serve a useful and more traditional purpose: documenting what a
small group of specialists know about a well-defined area. I would take
the claim to have a distinctive content policy with a pinch of salt,
because it looks mainly like an old-style wiki and not a WP-style set-up
with people arguing from general principles. In other words "WP is not
typical", which is an old chestnut.
