For a fairly funny read, take a look at this story about the war being waged in cyber-space over the Wikipedia entry on Hillary and the Wikipedia entry on Obama:
"After you see what happens when two warring Democratic candidates are thrown to the mercy of the Wikipedians, you kind of yearn for the 1911 Britannica. There was the day in February when an editor replaced a photo of Hillary on her Wikipedia page with a picture of a walrus. Then there was the day this month when a Hillary supporter changed Obama's bio so that it referred to him as 'a Kenyan-American politician.' "
Also, little mini-biographies of the self-appointed guardians of the wiki-pages, who spend inordinate amounts of time editing out things they see as distortions. Hillary's guardian is a 53-year-old software developer named Jonathan Schilling:
" 'You constantly have to police [the page],' he says, recalling the way Rudy Giuliani's Wikipedia article declined in quality after its protectors lost interest. 'Otherwise, it diverts into a state of nature.' "
