Somebody definitely should. The current wikipedia article contains an 
example in a hypothetical dialect of BASIC ('because an actual example in 
INTERCAL would be too difficult to read'). Somebody should enhance the 
article with the equivalent example in Python which is both easy to read 
and can actually be run:

from goto import goto, comefrom, label

comefrom .repeat
name = raw_input('what is your name? ')
if name:
    print "Hello",name
    label .repeat

print "Goodbye!"
