    Curating a wiki is not as easy as you think. If anyone can edit the content, you have to be willing to open your site to all kinds of low-quality, off-topic, or counter factual edits. Reviewing the work of hundreds of users to maintain a consistent style and tone can absolutely be a full-time job.

    I don’t know if it’s the case here, of course. But there’s a whole lot of “curating isn’t REAL work” shaming going on in this thread.

      It’s not anything in the neighborhood of a full time job. He absolutely does not deserve to make a living on it.

      And when those 100+ users contributed explicitly under a license dictating it not be for commercial use, he doesn’t deserve to earn a penny more than his expenses.
