In Which Friends and Family Are Neglected in Favor of Encyclopedia Editing

Here’s a story of an encyclopedia editor (that’s me) who tries his hand at editing Wikipedia, with mixed results (see Bix Beiderbecke), only to find five dollars at the end! In fact, it’s such an awesome story, it’s picked up by the Los Angeles Times.
Except for the part about five dollars. They left that out.
UPDATE: A response from Wiki.
