Editing Wikipedia, even the insignificant edits like linking articles to one another, creates a sense of empowerment. People are frequently talking about how social media needs to be used for something positive and for change, and Wikipedia is an example of where this change can occur. Editing pages that are important to you is a way to use the Internet to reach an audience you usually could not. You do not and can not incorporate your personal opinion into these articles so it's a great opportunity to educate yourself and others on subjects that you are passionate about. You're creating a credible and reliable piece of information that will be shared with a number of Internet users, if that's not powerful I don't know what is.
