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

  While editing Wikipedia, I was once again surprised by the power of collective intelligence. We could see the power of collective intelligence when we saw people unite with one belief that they would provide better information beyond the constraints of time and space, share each other's opinions, contribute, participate, and devote their abilities. In fact, these events are also seen in Korean society as a negative aspect. On SNS, people are divided into sides, divided into their own communities, spreading fake news and criticizing others. I think our society, which uses only group power in a bad way, needs a spirit of dedication to each other like Wikipedia's users. I thought it was necessary to have a spirit of discussing it, not ignoring it because I didn't know it, not teaching it, helping it, or cursing it because it was different. Like this, we can learn about collective intelligence through Wikipedia. Unlike existing tasks, it seems to have been different in that i...

W14; Do you Know / Nam Jinu

 Summary This is a function that recommends new content. It applies a set of criteria to users of Wikipedia to deliver new information. Wikipedia's diversity of information can be emphasized by sharing information that is not found on the main page. Interesting point I think these features are the reason why Wikipedia is more interesting to users. It is a function that encourages users to participate in continuing to expand and improve Wikipedia. Looking at the new information, users will be amazed at the diversity and will be more attracted to Wikipedia.

W13; After reading "Categorization" / Nam Jinu

Summary  This is a description of the use of Wikipedia's classification function. Only when categories are clearly distinguished can I find the information I want faster and more accurately, and the category function allows me to see the information in the field I want to find at once and helps me search. Interesting point Setting up categories enables more efficient management of information. Category classification allows people to identify the areas that they are most interested in and mainly what categories of information they want. In other words, it is convenient for users to use, but easy for providers to manage. This is because data can be collected and used as big data.

W12; What is “quality” for our societies? / Nam Jinu

  I think the quality of our lives is the level of consciousness. This is because the quality of life varies depending on what level of food, clothing, and shelter people enjoy. I think that if people enjoy food, clothing, and shelter to the satisfaction level, satisfaction naturally increases and other indicators rise accordingly. For example, there will be human rights. People don't live off food, clothing and shelter. Human rights must be guaranteed to be said to live as rain. As an extreme example, food, clothing, and shelter are guaranteed, but I think life without human rights is no different from livestock. I think democracy is necessary, just like these human rights. This is because I think I can live an independent life only when I have the opportunity to speak my mind.

W11; Is quality subjective or objective? / Nam Jinu

I think quality can be subjective or objective. The results will vary depending on what criteria the quality is evaluated on. Products measured with clear criteria will be objectively scored for quality. But it's the people who set the bar that evaluate it. For example, if a snack is made based on strict standards, it still maintains objective quality, but in an individual's view, it can taste worse or less than it used to be. In this case, it can be seen as a subjective assessment. Like this, I think quality depends on what criteria you evaluate.

W10; Can we think of some examples of how internet has changed our culture? / Nam Jinu

  The development of the Internet has changed everything. Our lives are not out of it either. Our lives now are irreparable to the Internet. If you want to look at a map on the street, you can use the Internet, find out the necessary information on the spot, and let you know the relevant information in addition to the necessary information. This development of the Internet has broken down the dam of information. As anyone has access to information, information that was monopolized only by existing intellectuals has been released to anyone. Currently, we can communicate with anyone in the world through the Internet and exchange information. However, as the development of the Internet accelerates, people's level of consciousness does not keep up with technological advances, and the Internet does not work in a good sense. Also, the elderly and the poorest who do not have easy access to the Internet still have difficulty accessing information. The development of the Internet has brough...

W9; Do you think Wikipedia is reliable? why or why not? / Nam Jinu

  Wikipedia obviously left a lot to users to collect huge amounts of information, but distortions of information inevitably emerged because anyone could participate. In particular, there have been many cases of political abuse. Wikipedia in Korea often fills in wrong information according to its political orientation. Failure to improve these areas will reduce the reliability of Wikipedia over time, forcing users to naturally decline. In other words, Wikipedia is reliable in some areas but unreliable in some areas.

W8; What do you find difficult? What do you find enjoyable? / Nam Jinu

The difficult: The difficulty was whether my edits were correct. So far, I've only searched and used information, but if the information I'm correcting is wrong, isn't it because of me? Am I authorized to correct this? The enjoyable: As I revise this information, other people will gain knowledge from this revised information. It made me think that I gave them knowledge. I think I enjoyed translating and collecting information because of this thought.

W7; Good Faith Collaboration / Nam Jinu

  This book analyzes Wikipedia's culture of cooperation. Wikipedia's participants are all open minded and collaborative. This open and receptive attitude is why Wikipedia has quality information. Sharing and complementing information while cooperating with each other can produce better results. In other words, Wikipedia is the result of a good faith that comes from the heart of making better information. Nowadays, with the development of the Internet, anyone can easily access information, but before that, only a few intellectuals shared and monopolized information because there was not enough space for easy communication between people. However, with the advent of Wikipedia, there is a place where people can easily, quickly and simply share their knowledge, so anyone can now easily and quickly get information. In other words, Wikipedia is the place that broke the border of information.

W6; How important are contributions of a single individual in the sea of "collective intelligence"? / Nam Jinu

  Individual commitment is important in collective intelligence. This is because individuals must gather to become a group. Because one individual's devotion is to gather and become a collective intelligence, collective intelligence can exert its power. Just because individual knowledge is excellent doesn't mean it's collective intelligence. Knowledge gathered through people's cooperation has more power than individual knowledge, and knowledge gathered, refined and supplemented by many people can have enormous synergy and become knowledge.

W5; Do you think Wikipedia is right to reject censorship? / Nam Jinu

I think censorship is essential part I think censorship is a very important role. Without censorship, any site like Wikipedia can participate, so it will be a scribble that only writes one's own thoughts without minimal censorship. If censorship does not exist, people will not be able to believe any information and information may be misused for a particular purpose.  I think censorship is a device that should not benefit anyone. You have to censor if you're really telling the truth. In this era of SNS development, celebrities are easily damaged by malicious information that comes up without censorship, and there are still no countermeasures against it. In this age of growing freedom of anonymity, I think censorship is a must-have function for all of us.

W4; What are the pros and cons of using Naver versus Google for research purposes? / Nam Jinu

  Naver and Google usually use it for different purposes. Naver often finds content rather than looking for specific information, and Naver itself contains a single information portal, or many contents. Popular information is mainly searched on blogs and in Korea. This is because Naver is Korea's representative portal site. As Korea's representative portal site, many contents and information are gathered, but people don't actually get qualitative information from Naver.  This is because more qualitative data can be obtained through Google and through accumulated data. Google tells me the information I want through data from all over the world, so I think it is much better in quality than Naver's information.  Therefore, Naver and Google have their own features that cannot be compared to each other, and I think it is desirable to use the appropriate search engine depending on the situation.

W3; Why is Wikipedia less popular in south korea... / Nam Ji nu

'Why wikipedia is less popular in Korea' is simple. Because there are already many other search sites. Representatively, Naver is the most popular search site, and most people are already accustomed to searching on Naver. Naver is not only a search engine but also has a number of additional functions, so it is not comparable to Wikipedia in the fight for people's awareness. Due to this, Wikipedia has been unable to gain great strength in Korea until now. However, as people increasingly use Google rather than search on Naver, the number of Wikipedia connections is naturally increasing. However, since there are still many generations who are more familiar with Naver, it seems that it will take more time to use Wikipedia.

W2 why wikipedia? / Nam Ji nu

Why wikipedia? Wikipedia has no restrictions on participation. Wikipedia does not impose any sanctions on users when obtaining information or modifying registered information. Anyone can revise or register information, and can revise information created by others, and vice versa. In addition, it is not difficult to use, so it comes in an attractive way for participating users.   Wikipedia is available for anyone There are no restrictions on joining Wikipedia. Therefore, even when signing up for Wikipedia, there is no request for user information, and anyone can easily sign up and use this encyclopedia with enormous information.   Wikipedia is not just an encyclopedia site. Wikipedia is not an encyclopedia written by experts. Anyone can participate and it does not depend on the user's ability. Therefore, if you use Wikipedia, you can see the viewpoints of many people and view information according to those viewpoints. These various perspectives can have a good influ...
