On the other hand, I think it is recognized that the mathematics sites
on Wikipedia are often of a much higher grade than other pieces of
this (note my using 'often' and 'higher', not absolute terms).  See
for instance a number of references to Wikipedia in the Notices and
Bulletin of the AMS in the last few years - several using it
implicitly as a standard reference.  That doesn't mean it's perfect,
but at least in mathematics many articles are as correct, as useful,
and *much* more accessible, than the standard references.  Just some
thoughts, not necessarily relevant to CS of course.
