The Art Of SEO For Wikipedia
by Stephan Spencer
"Wikipedia's importance as an authority site is undisputed. It's at the point where it seems a bit ridiculous how often Wikipedia shows up in the first page of Google for just about every search imaginable. In many cases these Wikipedia entries are extremely light on content. Oftentimes they are what are known as "stubs," just the very beginnings of an article.
Personally, I think Google is giving too much weight to Wikipedia. Take for instance a search on the word marketing in Google. The top spot has been awarded to the marketing entry on Wikipedia yet it is not the most authoritative or comprehensive source of marketing-related information on the Net by any stretch."
