This is not exactly Wikipedia-related, but a zillion people are talking about a plainclothes political protest (formal attire only) and I've started a wiki to organize it. I could use some help making sure there's no vandalism or anything while it finds its legs.

Ben Yates said...: Er. Yeah. I realized that after bluwiki went down immediately. I chose bluwiki sort of selfishly, because I wanted to get it up before anyone else did in order to influence the tenor of the wiki.; July 17, 2007 3:33 AM
Ben Yates said...: Alright, I've duplicated the whole thing on Wikia Politics. It works pretty well as an editorial, too, so that should be fine; if not, they'll find a good home for it. Argh. It's just a little frustrating; I had the reddit dynamics totally down. The thing was climbing the exponential curve until bluwiki crapped out. (Not that I shouldn't have known better.); July 17, 2007 3:43 AM
