Added a TV show and restaurant to HCPL's wiki. I've edited several articles for Wikipedia in the past (can't stand to see/read bad grammar :o}). Personally, I love wikis. Those who say the articles aren't reliable are probably forgetting that there isn't anything in print that shouldn't be taken with a grain of salt. Traditional encyclopedias are out of date by the time they're published because so much time has elapsed between the final editing and publication.
One of the best examples of the value of wikis is the recent disappearance of Steve Fossett's plane. Within minutes of the news breaking, an update to the 'Steve Fossett' entry reflected the event and updates were documented as they occurred. Now THAT'S Web 2.0!
