The edit history is interesting to review. They actively remove useful information from the article, e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Y_Combinator&d...

I'd love to see someone create a non-broken wikipedia that keeps the citation rules but eliminates of the rest of the deletionist culture.

Yeah, me too. A Wikipedia for articles about things that happened after the Web was invented. Imagine that!

Awesome. This page is even better:

Much more useful than Wikipedia. For an influential speaker there ought to be a list of talks just like for a famous singer there's a list of singles.

I believe you are referring to "How to start a startup" http://www.paulgraham.com/start.html derived from a talk to the Harvard Computer Society in March 2005

Thanks! That's the one. Only a few months after it, the first batch of YC started. I wonder if it will be similar for NYC. =)
