W15. What is the future of Wikipedia? Will it exist in 20 years? 50? 100? - MinSeung Sung 2016062706

Ten years have passed since the introduction of the collective intelligence of Mecca, Wikipedia. through civic participation. When Wikipedia first appeared on January 15, 2001, it was regarded as a collection of information that was prevalent on the Internet at that time.

But now it has an intellectual reputation comparable to the Encyclopedia encyclopedia. It is not just the English version. The Korean version also opened in 2002 and is available in 278 languages worldwide. Within 10 years, Wikipedia has become simply the best archive of information on the Internet.

I think the future of Wikipedia will change with their actions.
What is clear, however, is that information and knowledge, led by existing experts and minorities, have been converted into citizen-led ways. It can be seen in the wiki style, but it can be evaluated as an evolution of citizen engagement journalism, where anyone can post and post.

I think the wiki system is doing a great job of the 21st century Internet media. And the wiki method clearly showed the power of collective intelligence. Therefore, if you adapt well to your new environment, the Wikipedia family will continue to evolve and exist in the future.

What I am curious about is the format of Wikipedia in the future. The media of the future will be of a different form than the Internet. What format does Wikipedia have here?

    This is a very interesting comment. I am also interested in my article, but I think that Wikipedia will exist in a different form in the future. I think it will exist on the Internet in the state of an unimplemented database. Because there is no need for visualization in the future. For more information, please visit my article. :)

W5. Can we trust Wikipedia? - Seron Kim

Wikipedia is a large site used by people all over the world. People get information through Wikipedia and edit article directly when needed. Through the action of collective intelligence, Wikipedia is becoming more and more developed and growing. Can we trust Wikipedia? I think "We can trust Wikipedia but we should not trust it unconditionally.“   Obviously Wikipedia is reliable. Wikipedia itself has an implicit framework for editing, and people follow it and use it. It is also possible to increase the trust of the article by leaving a source for the information, and to delete the edited information through a predetermined process. So there will be more and more reliable information in Wikipedia.   But you should not trust Wikipedia unconditionally. Because there may be misinformation in Wikipedia. Of course, there is a high possibility that it will be fixed through the deletion function of Wikipedia and the collective intelligence of people. But it will be a ...

W1. What do I know about Wikipedia and what do I want to learn about it? - Yong il, Seon.

We learned another idea, we want an easy explanation.          Many people used Wikipedia. Why people visited Wikipedia? I have much thought about the answer to this question. Everyone will be editor in Wikipedia. So, several people’s opinions can be confirmed on one issue. It is also an important characteristic of democracy. Democracy is the recognition of the other’s ideas. And already in France, there were ‘Tolerance’. It means that As I am right in my opinion, and so you are right in your opinion. I think Wikipedia is making ‘Tolerance idea’ work very well. So, you can not force your own ideas on Wikipedia. Depending on the situation, users may be students, teachers, or even completely different third parties. From these points of view, Wikipedia is the modern version of Greece’s Agora.            And it is not over. Always people want an easy expanation, the more complex the case. Wikipedia has a structured form...

W2. My first edits. Describe why you made them. - Seron Kim

I rarely had access to Wikipedia before this class. Because there is a service called 'Knowledge in' operated by Naver in Korea. I've been used to the 'Knowledge in' for a long time, so I've always used it if there's something I don't know. However, I got to know Wikipedia in this class. Wikipedia has a much larger volume of data than I thought, and it is being used by people all over the world. Also, anyone could edit information. I want to search and edit my favorite soccer information. So I decided to do the editing on my idols, Ko Jong-soo and Nadson.   What was interesting about editing was that although the Korean Wikipedia was detailed by the players who played in the Korean league, the English Wikipedia had little or no information. So I want to edit more. Because I want to add their information to English Wikipedia to let people around the world know.   Different countries have Wikipedia sites and the amount and quality of informati...
