I think this is really fantastic, by the way. The "educating the world" has a lot of resonance for me and people that I talk with about Wikipedia.
More can be said along these lines, e.g. presenting Wikipedia as one of the few beacons of light against the force of anti-intellectualism which pervades so much popular media these days.
If you asked me a decade ago if I thought an encyclopedia would be one of the worlds most popular websites I might have laughed at the question. Wikipedia improves my faith in humanity.
