Forwarding from foundation-l.

David - thanks for the heads-up; this essay is brilliant, and not just
about biology.
Here's a shorter link:  http://j.mp/ten-wiki-rules

Magnus - I see your hand in this :-)   I'd love to see the edit
history...  Have you or your co-authors also published this on one of
the major wikis?

I predict Wikipedia's biology articles will far outshine its
philosophy articles for the simple fact that the biologists bother:

(That article is great, by the way. It gives strong reasons for
experts to put in the effort to bother.)
