Here’s something really useful.
You love Wikipedia but you know you can’t cite Wikipedia in your essays. Now The Full Wiki does the job for you. Mouse over a sentence from a Wikipedia article and find relevant sources, complete with quotes and citations.
Now on The Full Wiki, for any given category, you can find out which are the most popular topics within that category.
For example, Wikipedia has a category called Emotions which lists human emotions in alphabetical order. We thought it would be more interesting to rank them according to how many hits they get. So you can see the most popular first.
What you get is this. It’s interesting how the negative emotions dominate; the same emotions that drive the news?
You can use this tool to track what’s hot for all kinds of things from Australian actors to NASDAQ listed companies.
If you scroll down on a category, it’s fun to browse the parent and subcategories. You get top lists for everything!
Check it out! Lots more interesting insights to come!
I’m proud to say that this site is finally taking off. It’s been a hard slog: a tough lesson in learning to question your assumptions.
But now finally, The Full Wiki has gained traction. We now have a real audience that we can learn from, so we can really build the reference that you want. In the past three weeks, traffic has increased five-fold from 760 visits per day to over 4100.
I want to give a big thank you out to our loyal users. Anyone who has left us a comment, given us feedback or passed on the word. Without you, we’d still be lonely right now!

The Full Wiki right now is much like an iceberg. Our best features are yet to reach the surface. Stay tuned.
