I am not sure if this is the right place and time, but
I am using the
opportunity to advertise what I believe is the solution for problems of
this kind. It's called Data Extension and could be seen at
http://www.rastko.net/~nikola/ .
With it, it is possible to effectively have articles about various topics
similar to bot-generated articles without them actually being in the
database. It is possible to kickstart a small Wikipedia by translating a
handful of templates. And, it is possible to further expand the articles,
as it is with bot generated articles.
I like people "just do things" but please do not "kickstart" small
Wikipedias
with template translation. It is that: A painfull kick in the ... of the
people.
I simply don't want to sit in the same boat with people that think a bot
generated article is useful. I don't want to sit in the same boat with
projects that don't have the patience to grow sustainable.
If further small Wikipedias are starting to cheat like vo.wp I can guarantee
you that there will be a split of Wikipedias.
