curious if there are any other examples?

Wikipedia has a catalogue of forks, unfortunately mixed with mirrors:

Hi

How many of these are actual forks?

Apart from getting a 404 for your example, it lists it as a copy rather than a fork.

Some (Wikimapia/wikia) are just "inspired" by Wikipedia & appears to use wiki just to jump on the trendy bandwagon.

Citizendium appears to be a competitor but didn't use Wikipedia's database.

Are there any true forks that split due to principles that used the whole, same database?

Cheers
