=A Message from Jimbo=

"All those people who are obsessively writing about Britney Spears or 'The Simpsons' or Pokémon -- it's just not true that we should try to redirect them into writing about obscure concepts in physics...Wiki is not paper, and their time is not owned by us. We can't say, 'Why do we have these employees doing stuff that's so useless?' They're not hurting anything. Let them write it."

-Jimbo Wales, as quoted in James Gleick, "[http://online.wsj.com/article/SB121815517776622597.html?mod=psp Wikipedians Leave Cyberspace, Meet in Egypt: In Alexandria, 650 Devotees Bemoan Vandals, Debate Rules; Deletionists vs. Inclusionists]," The Wall Street Journal (August 8, 2008): W1.
