Re: [WikiEN-l] The London Review of Books on Wikipedia
I read that the project involves: a Django application running on Amazon EC2. Could someone technically minded explain how that differs from a wiki? Carcharoth See [[Hot Club de Brazil et Shoreditch]]. Basically it's a wiki with more of a rhythm section and Latin feel.

Re: [WikiEN-l] Social ideas (was Hi there)
An idea just struck me. Is there any way to better advertise the community portal, so those who are new to wikipedia can more easily find it? It'll be more easily vandalized this way, but I think any such thing will be swiftly reverted.

On the skin I'm using it is in the sidebar on every page under Interaction, so it's pretty prominently placed. Lots of interesting things to do listed there, many that look like a lot of fun.
