It's an easy mistake to make, though, since all .com links transparently 
redirect to .org ones. The name of the project is Wikipedia, not 
wikipedia.org. And I guess most people just aren't watching their 
location bar all that much, since it's the only place where it's really 
apparent (okay, it's on [[Wikipedia]] too). If we really care that much 
about not being called a .com, we should change that.
