Alas, not our visualization of revert relationships, but someone got slashdotted for doing a visualization of power struggle in Wikipedia:
Slashdot article.
"todd450 pointed us to a nifty visualization of Wikipedia and controversial articles in it. The image started with a network of 650,000 articles color coded to indicate activity. The original image is apparently 5' square, but the sample image they have is still pretty neat."
The original blog post was here.

The other paper was an alt.chi paper on the power structure of Wikipedia. (Paper here and here.)
The room was absolutely packed (easily 200+ people there), and they were spilling out into the hallways! Picture above was found on flickr.
