Hi,


I think it is tough to say which model ("curators or creators of content) is correct / more applicable. Different people have different tastes and skills as well as collaboration patterns. If you tried this in a different setting / community, you would probably get different results as well.


In its current form in the wiki, the BPX book is more a "book" than a wiki. There is one wiki page with the contents of an entire chapter. Usually in a wiki, there is a hierarchy of pages that allows individuals to pick certain chunks of information that can be corrected / edited. The placement of everything in one page makes editing a real pain. This also could be a reason that more users comment than edit.


Creating is also more difficult than curating which might be another reason that there are more comments.


Dick
