There's an excellent article entitled
"Open Source Everywhere" over at wired news:

"and some areas [of
Wikipedia] have been locked down -
the front page, for instance, because, Wales says,
"people kept putting giant penis pictures on there."
I haven't laughed so hard at work in a long time!
Me, too, espeically given my well-known concern about my mom coming to
Wikipedia. :-) Should I let her read the article, ha ha?
Did Jimbo interview for this, or is the author just a
damn good researcher?
Both! I was interviewed at length, but I could tell he knew his stuff
already.
If he researched all of this from the mailing list, then he probably
should have written "Wikipedians are planning to discuss how to move
to a 1.0 version, as soon as they end their 37-month-long debate over
the much more important and divisive issue of exactly what the logo
should look like." :-)
