Thanks Fabian. I'm forwarding this thread to Wikimedia-l, because I think that this tool will be of interest to many Wikipedians.

This is an Encyclopedia
One gateway to the wide garden of knowledge, where lies
The deep rock of our past, in which we must delve
The well of our future,
The clear water we must leave untainted for those who come after us,
The fertile earth, in which truth may grow in bright places, tended by many hands,
And the broad fall of sunshine, warming our first steps toward knowing how much we do not know.

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
