An interesting item appeared on NPR's "All Things Considered" last night. A report appeared in the journal "Nature", written by a group of scientists assessing the accuracy and validity of scientific entries in Wikipedia. They found it about as accurate as the Encyclopaedia Britannica! The short feature is worth a listen. Bottom line: they recommend that experts in scientific fields become more involved in the Wiki to increase it's value. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5055388
