This is really neat visualization of page histories and could be a
mechanism for assigning credit for pages (or maybe authorship for
articles).
It's like 'svn blame' which tells you who wrote each line but is
much prettier. Here's a screenshot of the main page history

You need to download the java application from:
http://www.alphaworks.ibm.com/tech/historyflow/download
then install jtidy from:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/jtidy/jtidy-04aug2000r7-dev.zip?download
Go under the file menu to 'install Jtidy' restart, and you'll see
an option for loading mediawiki articles. Replace the export url with
http://openwetware.org/wiki/Special:Export
and put in the page you care about.
