Hello,
I was thinking about the fact that wikipedia was still a tricky subject regarding its use for referencing in the academic world. I was wondering if it would not be possible to obtain from official academic bodies a sort of endorsement that would qualify a wikipedia article for "official" academic referencing?

Perhaps we could submit a few of the better articles to academic journals. And see how that goes. I'm sure we would learn a lot just from trying.
