[TIPS] wikiscanner - get this!

MANY thanks to Dan Berger for sharing this with me. I'll post it just as he sent it to me:

What it is, is a site (setup up by a 24 year old Grad student) to link anonymous wikipedia edits with the organizations "owning" the IP ranges from which the edits where made. Even though we've probably suspected it, this data-mining project lifts the curtain on that fact that organizations are doctoring their wikipedia entries. What I am fascinated by is the fact that it does lift the curtain so that companies can no longer hide behind anonymity when "white washing" their entries.
Enjoy,
Dan
