How much does it pay?  Since Wikipedia administrators allow all the
publisher socks to hang out and do what they want, this might be
better than editing.  I'm finding more of them just about every day,
and I bet I could do it better than they do, after all, although I'm a
bit of a hothead, my articles don't get reverted by idiots like me.
