Not that it's bad, but does anyone think they could've used a ... better picture of OSC for their article?

It's a beautiful picture! What I want to know is how he managed to get himself an entry in Wikipedia. How famous to you have to be for that to happen?

Not very:

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Welcome to Wikipedia, the free-content encyclopedia that anyone can edit.

In this English version, started in 2001, we are currently working on 499524 articles.
wikis are colloborations, and anybody can join in, as I understand it. So you could join and put yourself in, I guess. But others can edit it, too.

I almost got into wiki right before I stumbled on to the forum here. Hatrack is probably more fun. [Cool]

So someone go in there and edit the Wikipedia page and put one of his head-squeezing photos in there! That would be so much fun!

Yes. Somebody might edit out your changes, but you can try.

If anyone can edit, it's a wonder that the entries are even coherent, let alone accurate!

I edited a compositional error in the Gregorian calendar one once.
