'Wookiepeedia'

The idea of wikies is very powerful. Empowering the individual to edit and contribute information to a shared encyclopedia. 'Two heads are better than one' as they say. I have used Wikipedia for years and perhaps erroneously, accepted most of what is posted to be factual truth. But who is to say? Im guessing people dedicated enough to register and contribute have something worth sharing. Of course they may be just professional propogandists disseminating mis-information. I checked out 'Wookiepedia', a shared knowledge bank for 'Star Wars' fans, and it's cool that nerds have there own space to impress each other with their esoteric knowledge. I suppose there are applications for the library community - for those so inclined to contribute to the professions knowledge in this way.
