I don’t believe it will be pulling content from Wikipedia considering “2008 - 2012 Alpha Kitty, Ltd.  All Rights Reserved”.  The content wouldn’t meet our share-alike requirements unless those pages were specifically released.  In addition, it doesn’t appear like it will actually be a wiki, but I could be wrong since the site is still in development.  In any case, it seems like an interesting site to follow.

Hi everyone,

Just curious, are you familiar with this: http://wikipatia.com/wikipatia_wiki_hypatia.html

It doesn't exist yet, and I've been following their tweets. Just curious if anyone knows the wiki woman who is developing this :)   (I'm also curious if this will involve pulling content from Wikipedia to build the wiki or if it'll be freshly written content, etc..)

-Sarah
