Ipatrol has just came on IRC claiming that he has
been told that the WMF is
hiring people to "validate" articles, and that the foundation is doing it in
secret by using thousands of IPs and academics. He claims that the WMF has
contracted colleges all across the US have been recruiting academics to
"validate" articles, and states that admins are involved in this
'cabal', or
whatever.

If we were doing such a thing:
1. we wouldn't be paying anyone
2. we'd be shouting it from the rooftops.
Nice idea, actually. Anyone feel they could put together a serious
programme to recruit academics to such a cause?
