First published PLoS CB Topic Page
(http://www.ploscompbiol.org/doi/pcbi.1002445) and the Editorial (http://www.ploscompbiol.org/doi/pcbi.1002446) that outlines this initiative. The Wikipedia page is here:

This interface between PLOS and wikipedia looks great. One quick thought: it might be worthwhile to more prominently feature the link to wikipedia on the article page. Also, it’d be nice to provide some facility for rapidly “diff’ing” the article relative the current wikipedia entry. Perhaps it would be sufficient to link the article to the entry in the wikipedia history that it is most tied to in addition to the current page.
