I think we would wish to do that!
but I don't think PaperWiki and Sifter need be related.
Some articles might need to be *dramatically* edited down for Paper --
we would have to work to a set number of pages per subject area.
(count me in on it!)
It also might be an indication to people that they
can treat the
articles like "real" encyclopedia articles, and do things like cite
them in papers, whereas in the current state of Wikipedia everything
always has to be taken with a grain of salt
There was talk of making URLs for the version of a given date, for that
purpose. Did that happen?
