A lot of existing content from EA Concepts is being used to seed the new Wiki (I didn’t mean to give the impression that this wasn’t the case). However, some of Pablo’s articles weren’t related to EA Concepts articles, and some EA Concepts articles didn’t seem like a good fit for the Wiki or have gone obsolete (e.g. articles on various evaluators’ charity recommendations from 2017), so not everything made it over.
I wouldn’t be surprised if we continued to have additional “festival” events every so often, as a chance for people to look over lots of articles and notice things that needed updating. Aside from that, we’ll have me and Pablo continuing to work on this for the foreseeable future, as well as (potentially) one or more other contractors. And I expect the greater prominence of the wiki to bring out a lot of editors naturally — existing tags have already gotten a lot of volunteer contributions, and it’s really helpful to be able to say “you should throw that in the wiki for [TOPIC]” when someone shares something interesting.
I don’t have a great estimate for how much volunteer time we’d need to keep things running, but I’d expect the bare minimum to be less time than Pablo and I are putting in, such that further volunteer contributions are a nice addition rather than an existential necessity. If we were volunteer-only… maybe 15-20 hours per month? That’s enough time for a few dozen minor edits plus a couple of substantive new articles.
I’ll answer this question in my reply to your second comment in this thread.

Glad to hear the EA Concept content was leveraged!
