WikiVotr.com - Vote for your Favorite Wikipedia Articles

WikiVotr is a cool way to check out new cool articles that have been posted to Wikipedia. Like Digg, users submit their favorite articles and others can vote as well, so that the most popular articles make it to the top page.

The “upcoming” tab shows the latest articles users have submitted to WikiVotr. It´s easy to see the latest information being added to Wikipedia by checking out the “new articles” tab, showing a feed of the latest contributions as they come in. It´s a fun way to learn a lot about what´s new and what other people are finding interesting. The site was only recently launched, so there´s not much content that has been voted on, but as it grows, this could be a really cool way to spot some of the most interesting content on the free public encyclopedia.

“As an avid Wikipedia user himself, WikiVotr founder Grant Bartone wanted to create a website where Wikipedia users could come to discuss interesting Wikipedia articles and also discover new articles that others though were interesting. Grant is also a fan of the social bookmarking site Digg, and thought that a similar voting system would be the best way to easily find Wikipedia articles based on popularity.

The site is clean looking and easy to use, which makes finding new information and articles a simple task so that you can focus more on the content. Wikipedia is huge and it´s constantly growing, so having a place to check out what´s new on the site and what is worth reading is a great resource.

How are they planning on marketing themselves, because right now there´s not much going on on the site? Will people use this source, or keep to broader sources like dig, and keep to using Wikipedia only for specific searches?
