===October 2009===
On the evening of October 26, 2009, we caught Jim Cramer on CNBC's ''Mad Money'', ranting about the frequency of use of the phrase "'''albeit at lower levels'''" in earnings reports.
As a lark, we created a page on MyWikiBiz about the phrase. About 18 hours later, it became [http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=%22albeit+at+lower+levels%22&aq=f&aqi= the #1 result on Google] when searching for the phrase in quotes (out of 632,000 hits); and it was #3 when [http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=albeit+at+lower+levels&btnG=Search&aq=f&oq=&aqi= leaving out the quotation marks] (out of 2,730,000 hits).
The question is, what would happen if someone made a page about this phrase on Wikipedia? First, would the page get deleted? Second, if not, would it outrank the MyWikiBiz page, and how quickly?

As of late July 2008, MyWikiBiz's semantic wiki is about a half-year old with a Google PageRank of 3/10, while Wikipedia's plain wiki is 90 months old and has a PageRank of 9/10.
