Hi David,
not sure what you are looking for, so here is a bit of an overview of
how it went so far, as a basis for digging deeper.
Initially, the journal inquired with WikiProject Computational Biology
and WikiProject Molecular and Cellular Biology, offering "to help
establish new Wikipedia pages in the field of computational biology
that are not currently covered, either at all, or exist only as a
stub."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2011-09-26/News_a…
After quite positive feedback, the journal contacted potential
authors, the first article was written (on a CC BY-licensed wiki,
http://topicpages.ploscompbiol.org/ ) and reviewed both the classical
journal way and by the WikiProjects named above (cf.
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Comput…
), then it went into production at the journal, and when it came out
there, the existing stub article on the English Wikipedia was expanded
by pasting in the wiki version of the journal article:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Circular_permutation_in_proteins&…
.
The article has since developed the normal wiki way (cf.
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Circular_permutation_in_proteins&…
), and it remains linked to and from the static journal version (
http://dx.doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1002445 ) that is indexed in
PubMed and other scholarly databases.
Work on future Topic Pages has begun - e.g. at
http://topicpages.ploscompbiol.org/wiki/Viral_phylodynamics .
The process is not cast in stone, and suggestions on how to iron out
some potential rough edges are more than welcome.
Cheers,
Daniel

How's this effort look from the Wikipedia end?
