“Wired Editor Apologizes for Copying from Wikipedia in New Book”
“[Chris Anderson] said that while he believed Wikipedia was a valid source for books, he and his publisher had not been able to agree on a format for citations. … He said he originally wrote the sections using the material from Wikipedia in quotations, and had hoped to cite them using footnotes.”
Instead he just left out the quote marks and footnotes altogether? What the fuck, guy. This is the editor of Wired?
