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.

FYI,
The latest piece about Wikipedia from The New Yorker:

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
tucked
in—recalls the enchantment of pasting in update
stickers that
cross-referenced older entries to the annual supplements."
