An article about wikipedia you might want to check out

Wired.com has an interesting article about Virgil Griffith, a graduate student at Caltech who has built a database of millions of edits that have been made on wikipedia, the online encyclopedia your teachers want you to avoid. It turns out that Griffith has been able to track just exactly who has been editing the articles on wikipedia by tracing their IP addresses. The article can be found at the link below.
