week14 - after reading

1.

 Wikipedia's goal is to create and maintain an encyclopedia that covers all areas of human knowledge. In English Wikipedia, hundreds of new articles are created and expanded daily. DYK presents a set of facts (hooks) to showcase new and improved content, some of which accompany images, which are linked to selected articles. The hook appears in "Did you know..." for a limited period of time. We show new and improved content, and show readers continuous improvement and expansion of Wikipedia's article corpus.


2.

We present facts on a variety of topics that may not require main page exposure. By acknowledging the work that editors do to expand and improve Wikipedia, it contributes to the retention of editors and continuous improvement of content by encouraging editors to continue to work. Encourage readers to edit articles appearing in DYK or start their own articles to facilitate recruitment of new editors. Good selected articles appear in the DYK box, but feature content or small versions of good articles appear. Goods must meet the basic criteria set out on this page, but do not have to be of very good quality. There are problems such as the article being incomplete (but not incomplete), having a red link, or being able to expand or improve further. As DYK's main purpose is to showcase new and improved content, articles appearing in DYK are not expected to be considered to the highest level in Wikipedia.


3.

Can all users nominate DYK proposals and recommend their own? Are pages that have more than five times the prose section in the past seven days, such as redirect, stub, and statement pages, also accepted as new articles? Are documents (or, in some cases, pasted) moved to the main space of the document after working exclusively on a user or user talk subpage or article or draft namespace considered new documents?

W10 : Can we think of some example of how Internet has changed our culture? / 박소민(SOMIN PARK)

 1. Summary  The Internet has changed our culture so much. First, through the Internet, we can meet people regardless of distance. People in each country communicated over the Internet and reduced the barriers to distance by creating relationships. Also, the Internet has let us stay away from books. When we want to find expertise, we can get it from Wikipedia or Google. Even information in books can be obtained through e-books, reducing access to libraries and paper books. 2. Interesting point Further to the above, our brains are gradually degenerating because we don't have to remember information. We are constantly interrupted by SNS notifications ringing on our phones when we do something, so our concentration and attention are being reduced. Furthermore, the ease of obtaining information online is causing our short-term memory to decline. 3. Discussion point I think the Internet has made it easy to sever a relationship with a person because we can meet another person simply...

W7: Review of Good Faith Collaboration / Suyoung Han

  Review of Good Faith Collaboration 1) Summary – Wikipedia from an ethnographic perspective: focusing on collaboration within the community Wikipedia, which is called the world's largest encyclopedia, is an open community and is becoming more and more solid with the participation of various people, conflict, and resolution. In this respect, Joseph M. Reagle Jr. attempted to explain the culture that takes place within Wikipedia. The book describes how Wikipedia was created and what it values. In particular, he described Wikipedia in a book from an ethnographic point of view, and focused on cooperation within the community. 2) Interesting Point – Wikipedia is simple, but not I realized that Wikipedia is not just a site made up of community activities, but rather a collaborative activity that is carried out concretely for the goal. Before I read the book, Wikipedia was an encyclopedia site that only gave me information (even I didn't trust the information), and I thought ...

w9: Its often said by teachers that “Wikipedia is a good place to start, but a bad place to finish” why? LiuXinlei

 Its often said by teachers that “Wikipedia is a good place to start, but a bad place to finish” why? In terms of the comprehensiveness of the content, we have to admit the advantages of Wikipedia. For example, Wikipedia is undoubtedly my first choice when I don't understand an event at all. It is convenient, fast and comprehensive, and I can spend the least time to understand the whole content of this fact as comprehensively and neutrally as possible. But in the process of in-depth learning, Wikipedia can only be used as an introductory content, because in learning we need to understand this fact as much as possible, and we need to understand the different views of scholars in different regions on the same event. There will be different theories. Some theories seem to be not neutral or even discriminatory or ethnographic at present (such as Marxism and Marxism in China), and it is not suitable for Wikipedia. Be shown. In short, Wikipedia has a very low threshold for users. It assu...
