What has been done to investigate the reason behind this problem, and what were the results of said tests?  I haven't really heard a straight answer from anyone saying what the problem is, just speculation.

Perhap it's related to the news that Wikipedia is ca 1,400th in
traffic on the net?  I got mail out of the blue this weekend from
a prospective contributor who'd just noticed WP, and this morning
my wife was asking me to spell it so she could pass the url along
to someone she was talking to on the phone.  Maybe this is the
marketing tornado that Geoffrey Moore talks about (quick, to the
store for more servers! :-) )
