This just in from [[Wikipedia:Reference desk/Miscellaneous#Class Action?]]:

    I was recently contacted by some law firm from Miami,
    Florida about some class-action lawsuit they were
    assembling that involved a bunch of former and current
    Wikipedia editors that are suing the Wikimedia Foundation
    for compensation for all the time they spent improving
    the site without pay.

I rather suspect it's bogus on a couple of different levels, but I thought I'd mention it here.

And I'm planning on suing my local church for compensation for all the work I've done over the last few years without getting paid, even though I was volunteering at the time. What rubbish!
