Why Wikipedia is the most efficient of all attempts to collect and organize?


I think that Wikipedia comes from coexisting with a large amount of information in the new Internet environment. But processing this information on the same site requires a lot of labor costs. The advantage of Wikipedia allows a large number of users to use it for free, to access articles and academic materials on Wikipedia for free, and to participate in the editing of Wikipedia content as an editor for areas that they are good at. Wikipedia is defined in the words of Jimmy Wales as the sum of human knowledge based on people's desire and pursuit of knowledge.


Wikipedia has content in various languages, but the quality of the content in different language versions of the same content is not the same. I think there is room for improvement in maintaining the consistency of content between the various language versions. Do you have any practicable methods for this?

    Wikipedia itself has played a big role in reaching consensus on several major guidelines:
    1. Neutral point of view: No one may modify/delete the contributions of others because the views of others are contrary to their own, but should list all points of view.
    2. Available for verification: Any content must be published in a reliable, credible, and open media that can be verified at any time. Corresponding to it is non-original research.
    3. Presumption of good faith: it should first be assumed that any editor is in good faith.
    I think these three points can answer your question very well

W4: What are the pros and cons of using Naver vs Google for research purposes?

Google Scholar: In terms of academic research, Google Scholar is a web search engine that can search academic articles for free. Its source of information is also professional and rich. For example, articles from academic publishers, etc. There are also most of the published academic journals in the world. It also supports advanced search functions such as keywords, classification and filtering, and you can find the most relevant research documents in the entire academic field in a few seconds. Every search result on Google Scholar will show citations. This provides a good extended search clue, which is convenient for users to directly view related papers. As a Chinese student, even in mainland China, Google Scholar cannot directly access and use it. We will still use VPN and other methods for reference when conducting research. NAVER: And naver is more like an interactive community. There are more academic websites in Korea.  As a Chinese student, I think Naver rarely uses for acade

W2 : After watching Mitch Resnick’s TED video

 Through this video, I realized that programming education is not only as deep and professional as I know it, but also more flat and interesting. With the change of the times and the advancement of technology, the times we experience are indeed constantly changing. I believe that programming is just a way of learning like reading. It does not depend on any subjective intentions but exercises people’s logical thinking and creativity. China There is a common saying that “giving others fish is better than fishing for others.” I believe that programming does not exist as a short-lived technology, but behind it is that people need to keep learning with the times and have an open attitude. The purpose of early childhood education is different from the professional education we receive now. Early childhood education is more inclined to teach children the way of thinking, rather than the part of applying knowledge or technology in a professional subject as we are now learning. Therefore, addin

W13/After reading “Categorization”/HARI KIM

Summary) Categorization is a kind of list for dividing topics, and it helps users find information easily. All documents must be in at least one category. Therefore, categories must be well chosen. How are the numerous articles on Wikipedia categorized? First, the category should be chosen as the most helpful topic when someone reads the article. And usually an article doesn't exist in both the top and the subcategories at the same time. If there are few documents in the category you have in mind, you should check to see if they belong to a subcategory. It is also important to maintain a "neutral" perspective when categorizing. New/Interesting things I learned) I learned that usually one document does not exist in both the upper and subcategories at the same time. Before I knew this information, I had made a mistake in categorizing documents. In categorizing articles about rivers, the article was already part of a subcategory, but I have made mistakes by adding a top cate
