Done at forty minutes' notice, courtesy of an email from Danny - sorry I didn't have time to let Irish readers of wikien-l know. I did the interview on my mobile in a stairwell, so it probably sounded like sh*te ...

* Started with what we want to produce; I talked about the de: DVD, in its 3rd edition, and how we want to do that with en:. * Then issues of bios, defamation and Seigenthaler; I said that we catch errors when we spot them, but we've lately been working on actively fact-checking biographies of living people. * We can't keep a certain noise level of rubbish out, but we have lots of people who want to do good. * They crossed to Michael Earl who wrote the FT piece. He said how he'd edited the piece on his college to fix an error. * I said we want to put an encyclopedia in every schoolroom in Africa, paper or DVD, maybe on $100 laptops. * I finished that we're not a finished product but pretty good if you read critically.

It seemed to go nicely. I acknowledged a weakness, that we had stuff to fix on living people's bios, the rest was a big ad for Wikipedia.

And apparently I'm the UK Editor of Wikipedia. I didn't know I made *that* many edits ...

I'm now really hoping someone captured the audio stream, or that it's retrievable at a later date!
