Summary of 1st week
The process of collaborative intervention yielded few results thus far. Three of the seven wikis paid no attention to the insertion at all. Three witnessed an editor making "wiki-gnome" adjustments to the wikitext code, so that the article would be somewhat more appealing to the reader's eye, but not substantively altering the message conveyed by the original article. Only Uncyclopedia took cautious steps toward interactive play; flipping the bird to readers, and playfully offering a tongue-in-cheek recommendation to verbally add the words "in bed" to the end of each sentence.
