I think this could be useful for a project I have where school that are not connected to the internet could create their own wikis, however, I need to see how it develops.

Why not just build a wikipedia mirror?

All the data is available for free via download, torrent, etc.

Idk I have no complaints about wikipedia to lead me to look for a federated alternative.

@liaizon @nutomic oh no, I didn't realize that was one of the Lemmy guys. I guess that means that Lemmy development will slow down.
