[UgaBYTES] Challenges of collaborative knowledge creation - wikipedia ponders..

[Meddie Mayanja]

Hi all,

In case you missed it, wikipedia is seriously reconsidering its approach - meaning getting all revisions checked before they show up online. It's a radical change from current philosophy that allows almost anyone to edit anything.

It's anticipated that the new plan will increase reliability (read accurancy) of info - one has to add - that it would come with its costs too.
