Wikipedia in the media

I do a fair amount of local media in my advocacy work. In this, I’ve ended up doing a couple of interviews talking about Wikipedia. I forget exactly when I did the first one. The second was on September 17, 2007, 7:45am, for CBC Radio Calgary’s The Eyeopener. That was specifically discussing WP and the Calgary municipal election, 2007 article.

Appreciated appreciation
