A wonderful problem we haven't yet had to deal with: lots of media coverage. Despite having been written up by the
New York Times and MIT's
Technology Review, Slashdotted a few times, and inundated with enormous amounts of traffic after some
[Kuro5hin] articles,
Wikipedia has never actually been the focus of a sustained and enormous barrage of media coverage. Of course, Wikipedia isn't about the publicity, the fame, and the recognition; it is a work of passion and love. But we might indeed get a lot of publicity and that could have some ill effects we might want to be prepared for.
