W10: Free-culture movement / Sohee Heo

 The Free Culture Movement is a social movement that supports the freedom to distribute and modify any content or media to creators without any reward or consent.

This movement opposes overly restrictive copyright laws. Because I think excessive copyright laws hinder people's creativity.
Therefore, some call it a culture that allows it.

The first thing that came to mind when I first heard about the free culture movement was the copyleft.
Just as the steps of vegetarianism are distinguished, there are also stages of this movement, which are distinguished by the strictness of compensation and distribution, and there are various arguments.

It's a little difficult to give a clear answer to what's right and wrong, but I personally want to give a little more power to copyright law.
I think protection for creators rather promotes creativity.
I think creative things will be born that can change the world by what was not in the world, or what existed but needed to be supplemented.

In addition, I think that there should be devices that can strictly protect creators, so that authorities or true creators can stand out in each field.

W15： What did I learn while editing Wikipedia? How is this assignment different from more traditional student assignments? Is it more fun?/진신

At the time of writing this blog, I just finished the fifth week of editing. Before I knew it, I had already learned about Wikipedia for 1 semester. Every interface I have edited is the work of my painstaking efforts. I am very grateful that this course allowed me to truly know and understand Wikipedia. Every time the professor replied "excellent", "good job" and "very good", it was my greatest encouragement. Every time they remind me of my shortcomings and encourage me to try more, I have more discoveries about Wikipedia. Views on this course: Because Wikipedia is not available in mainland China, people in mainland China only know that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, but few people actually know about its editor. I am honored to be able to choose and study this course to learn about Wikipedia in my university life. This lesson fully let me grab the charm of Wikipedia. Compared with the theoretical courses, I prefer a practical course. Only through continuou

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

W8 : What do you find difficult and enjoyable?

  1.      What do you find difficult? There were many difficulties editing Wikipedia. The reason why it was so difficult was that Wikipedia was unfamiliar. Because it has to be translated into English, I paid a lot of attention to whether it was grammatically correct and whether it was the right style for online encyclopedias. In addition, it was difficult to find and attach photos that did not have copyright. It is now adapted to weekly Wikipedia edits. So I'm having fun and editing. 2.      What do you find enjoyable? It's fun to choose a topic of interest and read what's already been edited and find something to add. As I read, I can see things I didn't know, and I feel rewarded to fill in the article so that it can be more complete. Completing one whole piece of writing with others also played a part. 3.      Discussion Do you have any other features that you would like to add to Wikipedia?
