Wikipedia: Beneath the Surface (in under 6 minutes)

Librarians at North Carolina State University have just published a nice flash tutorial called Wikipedia: Beneath the Surface.  "What is a wiki? How does information get into Wikipedia in the first place? Who creates it? This short animation introduces viewers to what goes on behind-the-scenes so they can make the best use of what's on the surface. "  Similar to the CommonCraft Wikis in Plain English, but with more of a lean towards academic considerations.
