Here's an interesting article; http://www.smh.com.au/news/web/by-the-people/2008/07/29/1217097249794.html?p...
interesting that the author notes "Wikipedia came into its own on July 7, 2005, at 8.50am, when four synchronised bombs exploded in London's transportation system." - I'd be interested to hear thoughts in general about this article - but on this point specifically... should the en-wiki be encouraging the 'news' type items over to Wikinews, or embracing them as a core strength of the project....
cheers,
