Seems like a worthwhile idea. Who, if anyone, has taught courses about
Wikipedia in the past?
I am, in fact, developing one myself, I am currently working on a draft
for Prezi lectures about Wikipedia (they are licensed under CC-BY-SA,
and I'd be happy to share them with you if you'd be interested).

Hey folks! I just put up an Individual Engagement Grant proposal for
an idea I've been kicking around for a while now: getting a course
about Wikipedia onto one of the big 'massive open online course'
systems that have been so successful lately (Coursera, Udacity, edX).
Coursera classes typically have tens of thousands of students, so
there's huge potential for recruiting new Wikipedians and bringing
together a lot of the knowledge we've developed about teaching *about*
Wikipedia.
If you're interested, have a look at the proposal:

And if you have an interest in *leading* a MOOC, let's talk.
Cheers,
