You ask: "How do Wikipedia's processes for creating and modifying articles ever lead to high-quality results?" I really think its just another example of crowd sourcing and the power of mass groups of people! Together we have so much knowledge and it really just taps into our ability to as a group discern the correct answer. I believe so much in this ability we actually provide a number of dedicated servers for Wikipedia and offer Wiki hosting so anyone can start their own project based on the power of crowds.

About the high-quality results, it would have been interesting to see what people think of the results from a language to another. In which language do you think wikipedia is giving the highest quality results? These are some interesting questions about Wikipedia.

Though, I'm not sure that all wikipedia contributions are 100% true, I still think that it is a very interesting encyclopedia. Interesting article Mr. McAfee.

There are more delitonist due to their selfish motives rather than inclusionist. I really appreciate the efforts put by the author at the university level so the the next generation is aware of Good and Bad things and follow the Good always.
