and disadvantages which would apply only if [[mediawiki]] were used:

I hear that [http://openfacts.berlios.de/index-en.phtml?title=Main_Page OpenFacts] have done something like session sharing with multiple wikis with [[MediaWiki]]. Must inquire them about their solution and experiences

For what I've been able to think lately maybe merging [[Content Wiki]] and [[Opinion Wiki]] into just one [[wiki]] could prove most workable. Since almost all article types have been defined already and will use a [[pseudo namespace]] or a real one if we hack it to support more true namespaces.

:What about [[Signal:Exxon]] versus [[Research:Exxon]]?  Something has to be debated as research before it is accepted as reliable enough for the [[Consumerium buying signal]] to be affected? Ditch the words "content" and "opinion", they mean nothing.
:You're confusing design issues with [[wiki code]] issues.  Don't bend design around [[mediawiki]], it's garbage and will never work on the scale or with the reliability required.  Other wikis do a much better job of dealing with these problems, and will do better in future, certainly.  The [[tikiwiki]] people have already dealt with a lot of these issues, and the [[OneBigWiki]] people are working on login and changes issues, although they are wrong to think [[MeatballWiki]] is going to help, it's not a solution, it's another problem.  The [[MoinMoin]] people could merge all this easily since they are using common [[Python]] facilities.
:Don't lose the two
