Just a note about this, the editor in chief of JURIST edits on Wikipedia asUser:Bernard Hibbitts, normally adding links to JURIST entries. The entries I've seen in the topic of which I am knowledgeable are pretty high quality, so I didn't dissuade him, though I did give a mild caution and directed him to look throughWP:SPAM. He's interested in doing more work with Wikimedia projects, so perhaps people might be interested in checking in with him or the Signpost may want to interview him about why JURIST, as a Webby winner, uses Wikipedia as a reference. -BanyanTree16:11, 24 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
