Gutenbot

The English language wiktionary has a new experiment. Connel, one of the Wiktionarians has downloaded the Gutenberg project, he performed a wordcount and did a ranking for these words. The word seeing for instance currently occupies the 621th place.

I really like this example of being creative with this aspect of wiki. When I discussed it with Erik in Berlin, we found that there is indeed little room at this moment in time. Maybe we should consider to have some free space at designated places where one can freely enter data that is not structured.
