I thought that Wikipedia addressed the SEO problem by getting Google to not
follow the off-wiki links when crawling, so that Wikipedia's page rank would
not follow through to off-Wikipedia links. But I cannot (using Google) find
the page where I read that.
While that doesn't prevent people from spamming Wikipedia with external
links to catch people's eyeballs while reading Wikipedia, it should address
the SEO problem somewhat.
