Wiki Wednesday

Karen at Verbatim, one of my favorite daily reads, plays Wiki Wednesday, which has the following rules:

1. Go to wikipedia.
2. Click on "random article" on the left-hand sidebar box.
3. Post it!

Jim Rogers is a Democratic city councilmember of the city of Richmond, California. He was well known throughout the San Francisco Bay Area as a lawyer, until he was elected to ^[1] and ceased practicing law as of September 2006.

As you can see, this Wikipedia article is wanting for credibility, but it also illustrates how far-reaching the "people's encyclopedia" can be.
