Wikipedia is unique in its own way, no question about it, and true. But calling a project like this can never be recreated is wrong.

Wherever there is a community, people will contribute; people love being social, and many platforms do this broadly and well enough.

- OpenstreetMap

- GitHub ( people contributing Code, issues and bugs)

- All Reviews Platform ( this creates such a sign that today, whenever people buy or use any product, they would like to see reviews)

Thousands of others with no sign of stopping, and the future will keep on bringing more.

Peer-to-peer is a social culture that will always be there, and whenever new things come up, a similar peer-to-peer culture will back them.

well call then why would it be recreated. only for Dario's and Samas to .ZIP it and sell it back in a more convenient form? if that's okay, well - everyone rush to contribute, but I somehow don't see this happening and don't expect to see it in the future.
