Am I the only one to find that just a little discomfiting?
When I first saw that, it conjured up for me a picture of a group of
surgeons clustered around a wiki page panicking while on a table
nearby a surgical nurse struggles with swabs to control a bleeding
patient. On closer inspection, the wiki page says "YOU SUCK! LOL!"
Hate to be the cynic yet again, but my first impression was different
though equally discomforting.
Could paid editing could actually be lucrative enough to cover
tuition, textbooks, lab fees, room and board, food, even the average
student's vodka intake? Unlikely, but I'd hesitate to say impossible.
