No, not that really, even though there has been some press about entries being spun by those with an ax to grind. As I'm sure you know, the founder of Wikipedia has recently stepped in to limit update capability to certain volatile topics. My wariness is more a sense that it's less than scholarly across the board. I am a great believer in democracy but sometimes you want an expert, not the blended input of the masses.

If this is one of the next great innovations and I am a bit behind the curve, as I have been before, I will admit it. Just color me skeptical at this point.
