When I was sophomore, I had a group
assignment about Wikipedia. Wikipedia was really new to me at that time, and I
had to read about Wikipedia on Wikipedia in English because it was hard to find
the information on any other websites. I was pretty impressed by Wiki which
anyone can edit and it would open to anyone right away. Also if I remember
correctly, I like the way Wikipedia run itself by not using commercials to get
financed. At the beginning, I was more like skeptical of reliability of
the information which we can find on Wikipedia since anyone can write anything.
My professor asked me to search more about Wikipedia and I figured later that
there are system people can report errors and also there is quite a number of
staff who manages overall. That’s pretty much all I remember about Wikipedia
and I want to learn about the system in depth especially how it is run and I
also think that the reason Wikipedia is not as popular in Korea as in other
countries would be interesting.
We will be looking at all of those issues shortly :)
