[CQ-Contest] Time for a Contesting Wikipedia?

[Pete Smith]

Hi Joe - VE7FO makes this point very effectively in his additions 
today to the Contest Compendium (http://wiki.contesting.com) section 
on "Why Contest?"  Maybe he has such a presentation.
I remember a number of people saying over the years that they had 
such presentations, so it you should be able to find some.
