The Register article was written by Cade Metz, who has written
extensively about Wikipedia before and for some reason goes out of his
way to insult and misrepresent how things work here. This article
contained a particularly amusing example where he writes "Historically,
the site's cult-like inner circle has aspired to some sort of Web 2.0
utopia in which everyone has an unfettered voice." Calling Wikipedians
'cult-like' in the context of an article about Scientology, which is
often considered as the prime exemplar of such things these days? :)
