Do we have articles that are the result of concerted group editing (as opposed to the usual model where very few people edit before the approval process is initiated)? Did it bring significant improvements, or did it cause friction due to increased talk? I am looking for cases that could suitably be mentioned in the PLoS article as examples for pros and cons of collaborative wiki writing.

Good examples? Bad examples?
Do we have articles that are the result of concerted group editing (as opposed to the usual model where very few people edit before the approval process is initiated)? Did it bring significant improvements, or did it cause friction due to increased talk? I am looking for cases that could suitably be mentioned in the PLoS article as examples for pros and cons of collaborative wiki writing. Thanks! -- Daniel Mietchen 06:51, 26 June 2008 (CDT)
