Wikipedia <http://en.wikipedia.org> is a completely free,
non-commercial, online encyclopedia that anyone can edit. Wikipedia
has rapidly become one of the most important reference sources on the
web (#2 after Yahoo, according to Alexa:
<http://www.alexa.com/browse?&CategoryID=10>).

It could also become an important reference source for woodworkers.
But the woodworking-related articles in that encyclopedia are
currently in pretty sad shape; many topics are missing and most
articles are incomplete.

Some woodworkers have started a project to clean up the woodworking
articles, with the goal to ensure that Wikipedia has as complete and
accurate set of articles related to woodworking as possible. The
project page, which lists some of the tasks, is at
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Woodworking>. Come
and check it out.

Everyone is welcome (and needed). Your help will be greatly
appreciated.

Luigi

Luigi thanks for a great "heads up" I can see an awful lot of browsing
