1) It is, primarily, none of those things. It's a crowdsourced encyclopedia, and a wiki is ideal for that. 2) We don't need an infinite number of featured articles, we only need one per day.

I'm doubting that the thousands of stub articles that are just demographic info on US counties get much in the way of visitation, for example.
