Wikipedia

I have an interest in contributing to Wikipedia because it lets me make a difference, helping to build one of the largest repositories of knowledge anywhere. Wikipedia is sort of like a new Library of Alexandria, a place where the sum of human knowledge can be stored, sorted, and disseminated.
