UPDATING:
On the pool the resources thread, recently, Madness has asked about Wiggermann and academia.edu:
"These are a list of Wiggermann's articles that are downloadable?
vu-nl.academia.edu/FransWiggermann/Papers"
I can answer that yes, the link you mention is a variation of the site academic.edu . It is in fact totally separate from facebook and also with a totally different focus - though the mechanics of the site are similar.
I have mixed feelings about it - on the one hand I am happy that there is a place in which one can easily find students and scholars in the field if there is some desire to do that. On the other hand I am frustrated that the public is not able to join (you need a university email address), and to download the many paper floating around, as they have the hardest time getting this material anyway!
What is different than facebook is that there is much more of a work orientated feel to the place - you don't "add friends" here - instead, to connect to other peoples profiles, you "follow" their work. There are no games or social gimmicks of any sort. For the most part, people don't seem to interact much other than downloading each others papers etc. I would think even someone of your persistently serious demeanor may make use of it?
Anyway, yes I hadn't noticed Wiggermann's profile but there are tons of great papers. Here is a list of them, if anyone reading this wants any of these, contact me:

So you are astute as always in pinpointng the one on the 4 Winds and Pazazu - I will download and send it your way promptly. I had seen article that somewhere and have been fascinated by its premise. In fact, I had taken this note from the volume "Sumerian Gods and their Representations" , the contribution "Myths in Mesopotamian Art" by Anthony Green... as a prelude to Wiggermann's article, Green calls Pazazu "king of the evil wind demons" :
"...similarly, Pazazu, son of the god Hanbi and king of the evil wind-demons, is represented by a large number of stone, copper and clay figurines - head or full figure - which may be inscribed with incantations giving his name."
