Hello!

I am wondering if you think the following could be improved:

http://www.wikipedia.com/wiki/Java_programming_language

I'm one of the main organizers of Wikipedia, an encyclopedia project.
One of the resident programmers wrote, and I quote, "I am as expert as
anyone on this topic, and I think the article here is quite
good--indeed far better than I would expect any CS PhD to do." This
was in response to someone else asking me to find a reviewer for the
article. So, I thought it would be fun to get a second opinion, from
y'all!

Wikipedia is an open content ("free" as in "libre") encyclopedia
project. We already have a lot of programmers involved, but the more
the merrier.

Well ... it wasn't bad! Actually I thought the best thing
about it was how well-written it was, rather than the
content per-se. It was quite readable, and presented
complicated issues with understandable explanations.
That's actually hard to do.
