hi all, 

to announce it here as well, just FYI: we made a little userscript (whoCOLOR) available that you can use with tamper-/greasemonkey in order to show original authors of text in any (english so far) wikipedia article. still far from perfect, but it works and it's already kind of useful I would say. you can download the prototype version here for trying out yourself: http://f-squared.org/whovisual/

code under MIT should be up on github in the next few days. 

any volunteers/collaborators/re-users for this are welcome of course. i have some ideas for further extension listed on the website and aaron also suggested making it into a gadget, which is another great idea. 

 
cheers, 
fabian
