Which is a verifiably neutral encyclopaedia. And that's bad because?.... Guy (JzG) ****** Hear, hear. Wikipedia aims to provide a free, neutral, and verifiable encyclopedia of 50,000 articles to every person on the planet in his or her native language. Seven years into its lifespan, roughly 1/3 of the world's people can read a Wikipedia of that size or larger in at least one of the languages they speak (subtract 1.2 billion from that in practical terms - they live behind the Great Firewall of China).
On the grand scale of good deeds this ranks somewhere below achieving world peace and a bit higher than buying new marching band uniforms for the local high school. It's worth doing, and to get that far so quickly with a staff of only 15 paid employees is astounding.
