Does that even work? Surely Google isn't stupid enough to give internal links a significant weight? Wikipedia ranks highly because whenever someone mentions a new topic they almost always give a link to the appropriate Wikipedia page for people to find out more about it. I very much doubt internal links have much to do with it.
Internal links are definitely a significant part of why Wikipedia pages rank so high. There are lots of Wikipedia pages which rank high for a term and have *no* external links to it. I'm not sure if it's a good idea or not, but it's certainly true.
