Wait are you talking cutting room? I had no idea they did that. Very weird for a site that's just copying Wikipedia.
Copying Wikipedia? Where did you get that from? They have loads of content, including stuff like text dumps, that you'd never see on Wikipedia.
I mean the format, it's a generic wiki formatting. Not referring to the actual content. The content they have is awesome.
