The press has discovered another politician whose career problems are being detailed in Wikipedia. This time it's San Jose mayor Ron Gonzales, as reported by the San Jose Mercury News, "On Wikipedia, someone's adding mayor's troubles to his profile".

Linda Knapp of the Seattle Times, who recently wrote a review of Wikipedia (see archived story), followed up with an article based on responses to her column. She discussed the use of Wikipedia in schools and the Nature-Britannica dispute. Knapp also mentioned her efforts to submit an article on Photoshop Elements 4.0, based on another of her columns, but it "disappeared" into a redirect to Adobe Photoshop Elements.

Wikipedia was discussed again by the radio program Open Source, as part of its show on The Limits of Crowds. Prompted by Jaron Lanier's recent essay about "online collectivism", it featured a discussion with Lanier along with other guests including James Surowiecki, Ze Frank, and David Weinberger.
