Wikigate

So, the joke update to John Seigenthaler Sr.'s bio on Wikipedia that linked him to the Kennedy assassinations appears to be the "magic bullet" to broaden the awareness and understanding of wikis. Go figure.

Prior to Wikigate, I posted under construct 1 in Bob (a friendly document discussing constructs to improve electronic communication) that the new world of pervasive publishers would require FDA like categorization to let people know the grade of information they were dealing with. I even mentioned Wikipedia. Go figure.

I hope there is not a rush to "reform" the world of wikis. If there is, one would think blogs would be next.
