The issue isn't who's running the wiki, but who's running the wiki farm. Wikia is a for-profit venture founded by Jimmy Wales, and well... just look at the Controversy section on the Wikipedia page. And then realize that Wales is on the board of directors of both Wikia and Wikipedia, so what's said there could have been far worse.
Anyway, the data set I'm building is for anyone to use. I imagine it's not too different that what Morgan Wick did a long time ago to find wicks. One could use it to do scientific research on the internal networking of wikis, or research on the use of certain idioms among tropers. It's not affiliated with any project at this time.
