I can't recall whether it's every few hours, days or weeks that human beings destroy and remake a large part of our cellular anatomy. Point being that theHindu culture has that bit right - creation and destruction are both creative forces, and in many ways the same creative force. Its hard to say where one stops and blends into the other. Flagging up possible "Wiki Killers" is a bit pointless. Like any evolution, we'll do what we do (which we hope will be largely productive but may not always be) and it'll eventually evolve into something else, or we'll find we ran ourselves to a dead end with nowhere to go, or something will happen to change the rules of the game that we can't or don't adapt to adequately,and we'll see this project die or evolve or become a niche. Like any highly complex multi-factor open ended evolutionary process. But the concept it embodies, of free worldwide knowledge... I think that one won't die with it. And that's what users here by and large, are likely to be more attached to. Wikipedia just happens at present to be a presently dominant exemplar (in the cultural/landscape sense) of what is likely to be an enduring meme.
