On Wikipedia editing for pay is, in most

If this turns out to be true, I will be very disappointed. Wikipedia
has succeeded in spite of the fact that its editors are volunteers. We
should not make that handicap some badge of honour.
I agree fully. If I were to somehow arrive at a large pile of money I
didn't need, paying people to edit Wikipedia is one of the first things
I would use it for (along with paying people to code on a few choice
Free Software projects, most likely).
