Another nice quote:
When I showed the Harvard philosopher Hilary Putnam his entry, he was surprised to find it as good as the one in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy. He was flabbergasted when he learned how Wikipedia worked. "Obviously, this was the work of experts," he said.

Generally great expository that aptly captures Wikipedia's most interesting corners. But this deserves a big whaaa?
"Wales—who resembles a young Billy Crystal with the neuroses neatly
