Charles Montgomery thinks Korean literature could be on the brink of a
popularity breakthrough.
Really great example of how to engage local audiences and *care* about
editing Wikipedia.

Putting Korean Literature on the Map

But when he looked on Wikipedia he was disappointed to find a dearth
of information about it. Major authors were overlooked: Gong
Ji-young's page was a 60-word stub; Park Wan-suh had no page at all.
...
But he has his eye on a time when he won't want to publish five times a week.
"The blog is useful and it connects people," he says. "But the
Wikipedia, in the long term its much more valuable."
