"Shopping-enabled Wikipedia Page" Their mouse over was not yet functioning when I tried it., "Loading, Loading, Loading..." Amazon, as it sells nearly every product known to man, is doing a clever thing, using a Wikipedia article to sell stuff. It can extend well beyond books. And any firm selling anything is welcome to do the same thing, if they can figure out software linking mentions of a product with their product page, although a simple internal link [[Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man|Buy Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man]] would serve if wiki software is used. I wonder how you would put a cart onto a wiki. I guess a external link to PayPay would work. So is the foundation helping them in any way, or getting any thing from them?
