- gilleain 3y agoLikely it was originally a 'nodeshell' - in other words, a title of a page without any content. So someone created the idea, then someone else ran with it and filled it in. One thing that was great about E2 was that the same title (node) could and did have multiple 'responses' so even a factual node could have different pages with different authors. Sort of a cross between a wiki and stack overflow. It meant you could have two or more consistent viewpoints that disagreed, unlike a wikipedia page that is a mixture of authors.
