That raises an interesting question, should they even be accessible  
outside of the search result screen?  What if you can only view a  
mini-article in it's native environment, in a search result?

We're all still learning exactly what they are of course, so my $0.02  
is that their very definition is being part of a search result and  
any other uses may be diluting their value as that.

Even still, http://mini.search.wikia.com vs. http://search.wikia.com  
seems pretty insignificant a difference there?
