This is very interesting - something we should be looking at closely. Unfortunately, I'm in the middle of exams & can't give it much attention until next week. Perhaps someone else would like to take this on?

I have been approached by wikidocs about wikipedia and wikidocs working more closely together. A discussion has started here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)#Wikidoc.org The person who runs wikidocs is interested in discussing things further. http://www.wikidoc.org/index.php/User_talk:C_Michael_Gibson They are run under a similar philosophy as wikipedia. Making some of wikidoc a sister project and combining the rest of it into wikipedia / wikibooks would increase the quality of both. Cheers Doc James
