Are you serious? What's in it for them is the ability to participate in the community of their choice, protected from the occasional madness that is Wikipedia. And more to the point, *knowing* they're protected. They would never have random strangers coming along criticising their work (or if it happened, they wouldn't know about it), or complaining that they used the wrong template or category or something. (Not that that happens all that much, but perception is what it is.) How you manage the feeding process would be very interesting.
