At a meeting last month of Wikipedia contributors, founder Jimmy Wales emphasized quality over quantity, and the Wall Street Journal follows up by asking, Will Wikipedia Mean the End Of Traditional Encyclopedias? This is a 12 Sept. interview between Mr. Wales and Dale Hoiberg, editor-in-chief of Britannica.
I swear this isn't a blog about Wikipedia, but I just find this discussion on quality fascinating. And yes, it is directly tied to consumer-think: Wikipedia will thrive only so long as non-posting users believe in the quality and value of Wikipedia.
