It may be ego, but it was earned. I want my damn Wikipedia page updated as it barely touches reality and has caused questioning of credentials. My edu, WaSP work, Gates F2Fs, articles, keynotes, training, SME for higher ed courses ain't. And apparently I was awarded once in 1998.

It's a question of time and priorities. Writing a new article on Wikipedia is a lot more fun than updating the millions of existing ones. Since we're all volunteers, we do what is fun and not necessarily what is needed.

As a writer I totally get your point. And it's got workarounds if we organize. Janet Daly expressed a great idea on FB of a 10 person "klatch" with cyclical input so as to avoid that burnout and keep folks fresh. This is also socio-political in part and that is unacceptable IMO.
