I believe I've had some problems on both sides of the story here; as a new editor who believed that other sites on the same subject are a valid source of info until told otherwise, and as an experienced editor with a factual accuracy and writing speed that ended up with watever I added to the wiki becoming the target of multiple scrapers on other sites.

I have edited for Wikipedia's animanga project and someone pilfered a whole article there which I had to deal with. It just so happens that many wikis that mass-port Wikipedia have horrible SEO - and many wikis that adopt zero tolerance towards Wikipedia content importing have first-page rank and are ranked for their original efforts in the "Big Wikis" hub.
