I have just been working on a car based Wiki site, Just set up an editor and added a few headings.
Its going to be cars only, and I'm hoping to add autodata style sheets there as well as general info, I would like to go into detail on certain things too...

You can edit a wikipedia page, but your there how....
Whoever heard of such a thing? If anyone could edit a Wikipedia if someone erases it or something they'll just revert it.
Wikipedia:Editing_policy No way, deac.

On my Wikipedia user page, I run a Wikipedia script that displays my statistics (number of pages edited, number of new pages, monthly activity etc.).
I'd like to put this info on my blog.
Can anyone recommend any API's that would allow me to do something...

You can also use the Special:Export feature to dump data and parse it yourself .
MediaWiki's API is running on Wikipedia ( docs ).
Wikipedia is built on MediaWiki, and here's the MediaWiki API .

If you.
Just publish your facts.
No, Wikipedia is a public domain and that means anyone can edit its content.
If you want a place where you can control content, then create your own site .
Will be.

How quickly do edits to an article in Wikipedia appear? What is the review process?

Answer Snippets (Read the full thread at yahoo):
The review happens afterward, but rarely in a coordinated fashion - people can see what changes have been made, and revert them or make their own change if they don't agree with them. .
Edits appear immediately when they are made.

The topic interests me because of Wikipedia's size. It may be easy to create some crons to update the sitemaps periodically in a small site, but what about a big one? So:
How does Wikipedia generate its Sitemap?

Hi, is there a way to batch copy certain wikipedia articles(about 10,000) to my own mediawiki site?
EDIT: How do I do this without overwriting similarly named articles/pages? Also I don't plan on using illegal means (crawlers etc)
