Hi,

There are many uses for a wiki to Rev project as there are many uses for wikis.

There is a big need for the migration of wiki pages to wikis. They may
not land at first blush within Wikipedia, but they could migrage to
any of the thousands of wikis at http://www.Wikia.com.

The concepts involve:
- a scrape (claw the content off of another source) and
- hyperlink / reformat so the content is with wiki markup,  and
- reposting is simple.

But there can be much more yet. I'd love to see Rev muscle put into
work for extra elements that go beyond the wiki pages.

For example, a sports league could have a wiki page on each player
that gives some basics. However when that page is with a coach or a
fan with the extras it would also keep all sorts of stats and extra
value added content that are too much for the wiki pages to organize.
All of that extra stuff could be linked to the wiki content.
