First thing these guys should do is eliminate googlebot from crawling wikipedia.

Wow, I am just amazed at the amount of sentiment expressed here for "getting even".

Again, this has NOTHING to do with Wikipedia.

Shoot first, ask questions later. Find somebody to blame and make sure you stick it to them. Let no good deed go unpunished. Help stamp-out nonprofit ventures!

Frankly, at this point, Wikipedia doesn't need Google. Like most Wikipedia users, I just go there directly. I do at least as many searchs on Wikipedia as I do on search engines.

IMO, Google features Wikipedia so prominently because doing so enhances Google's credibility considerably. Perhaps by proactive design, perhaps by algorithm, but them's the facts.

I've snagged a nice domain typo; assuming it's gonna be called Wikisari.

WikiAsari. But that's just the name of the project. Wales has already said that that's not going to be the name of the search site. He's been mumm on that.
