There is no english edition, simple wikipedia would be what looks the 
nearest to it but still, it's aim is not exactly the same.
There is just a quite closed equivalent in dutch, ( 
http://wikikids.wiki.kennisnet.nl/ )

1.589 "Páginas de contenido" on Vikidia in spanish, that's something...
They have never been as much user as on the french edition. But I guess 
they haven't been some fully inactive weeks since 2 years.
Those times, there is just one or two user. I guess that some old ones 
are around and would hel if some new users came, but it's not very 
active and so very fragile (yet "alive")

Sure, we start to do do that with the french edition. It was used in a 
free sofware DVD here : 
http://www.framablog.org/index.php/post/2010/10/21/FramaDVD-Ecole-des-ressources-libres-pour-l-ecole-primaire
and will be used on a PCLinuxOS
The french database is here :

Sure, here are the 500 most viewed pages on es.vikidia : 
http://es.vikidia.org/wiki/index.php?title=Especial:P%E1ginasM%E1sVisitadas&limit=500

Nevertheless, my main issue right now, regarding Vikidia in spanish, is 
how to let it be more active than today ! Be it by other people.
I hope you have some ideas about that, so you ca use a much more 
deleopped base of article in 2, 5 or 10 years :-) .
