Hello, my name is Svante Welin, and I am a Swedish freelance journalist writing an article about the Wikipedia project, focusing mostly on the Swedish Wikipedia.
One thing I'd like to know more about, though - and here is where I hope you can help out - is more on the idealistic issue of the Wikipedia project. What I'm saying is... I've found lot of information on the servers, statistics and technical data history of the Wikipedia project. Even though this is interesting, I'm looking for something more. What do people behind the project think about the potentially revolutionary democratic encyclopedia Wikipedia has put into place? Pros? Cons? What future do you think Wikipedia could have, what are the possibilities?
Any other thoughts related to these questions are welcome. Especially from people who've been involved in the project from the beginning, or for a long period of time.
Thanks, Svante Welin Sweden
