You're totally right, WikiCU is much better that CUWiki. CUWiki is my project - I started it about halfway through the spring term 2007 knowing very, very little about the Mediawiki software. I put in all the Cornell pages from wikipedia thinking that they'd be a good test setup. My intention is that those pages will remain and get updated from wikipedia once in a while, and new Cornell pages will be added that are locally relevant. Check back in the fall!

I have to say that writing WikiCU from the ground up has resulted in a much better wiki than this one about Cornell, where the only active editor seems to have copied a great deal of material from Wikipedia. Take just one totally random example: Alexander Hamilton versus Ezra Cornell. Reaganaut 05:34, 24 April 2007 (EDT)
