問題詳情

Wikipedia is revolutionizing the concept of encyclopedias and the way we gather knowledge.Since its birth online, Wikipedia has become the world’s largest reference work. With more than 1.2million articles in nearly 160 languages, it easily dwarfs the Encyclopaedia Britannica, the EncartaReference and a half-dozen other rivals.How did Wikipedia get started? Jimmy Wales, Wikipedia’s cofounder and leader, began with asimple yet counterintuitive idea: create an open encyclopedia that anyone can contribute to. (Thename Wikipedia comes from the “wiki” sort of collaborative software that powers the website.) Theproject adopted a few rules of order: whenever someone edits an article, a new version of the articleis created and saved. This is important because Wikipedia is an open-content project. Such projectsare fueled by the authority derived by the contributors from the work that they do. Your contributionto an article, no matter how small, is kept for future generations and clearly identified as such.
