Just had a little flurry of DM tweets with him. He works for Sydney local
ABC radio (AM 702) and noticed how the biography of Cyclist Alexander
Vinokourov https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Vinokourov was updated
with the olympic victory before he'd even dismounted. They're thinking of
using that as a hook to lead into a little story about how the WP community
curates content, keeps up to date etc. (the usual "how do you do it" kind
of story) with a little added local angle of "what's the Sydney Wikipedia
community like?". They may, or may not, do this for tomorrow morning's
show. I'll advise if there's anything further :-)
