The stat I found interesting is this one [citation needed]: while a majority of edits are done by few editors, most of the content is generated by either a) anonymous accounts or b) people who have contributed 2-3 times and haven't returned since. The editors, like the bots, represent maintenance edits.
Keep that in mind the next time Jimmy Wales gives beaucoup credit to editors, or some super-user gets power-happy.
