That's a good thing we need some fresh blood here on wiki, i've been talking to some of my comrades here in las vegas into joining. Let's take advantage of the free press we have!

Fortunately, there is some built-in quality control here; the link provided is broken (http://www.en.wikipedia.org/), so we'll only have to deal with newbies who are able to find their way to Wikipedia on their own. :)

I really don't get why the media never get our URL right. Most of the time I see www.wikipedia.com or www.wikipedia.org. Admittedly, they forward to en.wikipedia.org, so for English-language media that's fine, but they should really be linking to the proper language directly. Especially non-English ones should...

They never get the URL right because of the non-standard practice of redirecting www.wikipedia.org to en.wikipedia.org. It's confusing.
