W14: Did you know / Lee ye han

Summary

It aims to convey information that is not well known to the public among articles on Wikipedia. Every day, new articles are published on Wikipedia and exposed to the main page for a period of time. There are several rules to appear as DYK. First, it has to be the latest article, not the old one. It should be a newly created document within seven days and should be reviewed for copyright issues and compliance with Wikipedia policies. The length of the document should also be appropriate. Articles that meet various criteria are selected as DYK.

Interesting point

I knew for the first time that it was a function designed to inform the public of unknown articles.
It was interesting that DYK also had rules. It must comply with Wikipedia's policies and rules and must be a recent document written within seven days. And the length of the article should also be sufficient.
It was an interesting system to randomly select the latest news within seven days.
If information is delivered to the public in this way, I think DYK's purpose will be well followed.

Discussion Point

Why do you think DYK is targeting the latest article? Also, how much do you think DYK is affecting collective intelligence?

    I also found out for the first time that only the latest articles written within 7 days are available.If the rules include articles written after 7 days, we may have been worried about the situation that it would become too broad to introduce the articles that we really need to introduce. Also, the goal would be to deliver the latest news quickly, but if it's after the 7th, it could be because it's too late.

    I read your writing well. I think the reason why DYK is targeting the latest article is to inform many people of the newly updated information. Just as Naver's news portal informs the latest information with an interesting title, I think DYK is the same principle.

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...
