Tinkering with Wikipedia to change public opinion

Well, in the tech community, all the buzz this week has been about the new Wikiscanner.  Wikiscanner scans Wikipedia and identifies the changes that certain IPs have made to pages on Wikipedia.

I can’t wait to see the fall-out from this one.  How many politicians across this country do you think have altered their Wikipedia page?  And corporations?  The next few weeks will certainly be interesting as people explore this new tool.
