Blogging through Wikipedia (2020)

Summary It is a global nonprofit organization that can share and reuse creativity and knowledge by providing free legal tools. They help people who want to reuse their work. Share the reproduction of work and legally help ensure reproduction. In other words, it can be said to be a knowledge-sharing organization. They provide a license called CC. They do more than provide copyright licenses. It guarantees works legally and technically and has a profound impact on the distribution of works through the media. There is criticism that it violates copyright, but CC does not infringe copyright. Rather, CC is a type of copyright qualification, and those who want to use and distribute their own works to the public are helped by CC. Wikipedia also has a WC of the same nature as CC. This is a non-profit volunteer like Wikipedia. They are providers of content, acceptors, and can distribute their own creations that do not violate copyrights, and can use them at no cost. Unlike CC, WC is not a typ...

Summary The Free Culture Movement is a social movement that promotes freedom to freely modify and distribute other people's creations. Free culture movement is carried out using the Internet and other forms of media. These social movements were initiated to oppose excessively restrictive copyright laws. The free culture movement is linked to various fields based on the free exchange of ideas. This promotes more creative and original development by imposing diversity on creations created by others. The free culture movement is strongly linked to the remix culture. Remix culture is a culture that allows and encourages the creation of new creations and products by combining or editing existing materials. Like the Free Culture Movement, it promotes the development of culture by developing other people's creations according to their own methods and interpretations. The development of the media and the Internet has flourished the remix culture, and the nature of the remix culture h...

Summary As Wikipedia grew, Wikipedia was mentioned in various cultural areas. This article shows Wikipedia referenced in various areas. There are no restrictions in the cultural realm of comedy, music, magazines, clothing, cartoons, literature, mail, news and television. It also appears in politics. Wikipedia references in various areas prove that Wikipedia has a lot of influence on society.   These comments about Wikipedia coexist with praise and criticism. For example, in Simpson, the character Lisa tries to learn more by using Wikipedia after discovering the witch's Coven. This shows Wikipedia is an encyclopedia that is familiar and accessible to people and has high information diversity. This speaks of Wikipedia's strengths. Also in the BBC News Quiz, Alan Coren mentioned the mistakes he made in Wikipedia, which shows Wikipedia's chronic problems. Interesting point Unlike Korea, it was amazing that Wikipedia has a great influence in Western society. In Korea, Wi...

Summary Wikipedia constantly raises questions about reliability. Several studies have secured Wikipedia's overall reliability, but the question of reliability still exists. This problem stems from the characteristics of Wikipedia. Wikipedia will be co-edited for non-professionals to participate. It is highly likely that unreliable information will be provided for the general public, not experts, to become information producers. Therefore, this is why Wikipedia raises reliability issues even though it has an amazing ability to modify information compared to other encyclopedias. Wikipedia encourages the use of reliable sources to enhance the reliability of information It defines and specifies reliable sources. Ignoring Wikipedia's kind explanation, information that deviates from Wikipedia's policy may result in a penalty of blacklist registration. Wikipedia is doing its best to the extent that they can work. However, it is inevitable that Wikipedia is less reliable than tra...

Opinion This book covers the whole of Wikipedia. By analyzing the history of cooperation before Wikipedia, the appearance and progress of Wikipedia, we list the reasons and causes of Wikipedia's successful system and its unique characteristics. The most interesting thing about this book was the nature of Wikipedia's system. Wikipedia, where anyone can participate, has many systems to maintain its collaborative nature. The most interesting of the systems is the manager (mediator) system. Due to the nature of the encyclopedia, which should list objective facts, listing information about politics and society is the most difficult problem. It is more difficult for Wikipedia than for traditional encyclopedias. Different views lead to a strong debate. Wikipedia effectively manages these disputes. It forms a voluntary culture to resolve the issue peacefully through discussion, to make decisions through voting, and to coordinate conflicts through managers (mediators). Problems are...

Summary Wikipedia is a puzzle that fits people together. Puzzle puzzle with people all over the world causes many problems. Non-neutral perspectives on information, indiscriminate abuse of information and conflicts among people in providing information. This is a dangerous problem because of the nature of the informative encyclopedia. In order to make up for this, Wikipedia presented various efforts. Solving through the development of technology, mediating through unauthoritative managers, communicating among people, providing diverse perspectives of information, but the most effective effort was Wikipedia itself. We solved the problem through strong collaboration. People of pure purpose solved the problem on their own, and achieved successful results. Wikipedia is an innovative model that has emerged within the capitalist system and an exemplary model for everyone to choose from. People should be recommended a cooperative system that begins with good faith, not a competitive system...

Summary Wikipedia allows anyone to edit and access encyclopedias. Wikipedia has the ideal of a cooperative culture. However, the existence of a dictator is essential to maintain and manage the organization. Not everyone is cooperative. In order to control those who are not cooperative, Wikipedia must be a democracy but not a democracy. It should be anarchy but not an anarchy. In other words, Wikipedia needs a merciful dictator. A merciful dictator encourages people to participate with the utmost neutral values, encouraging debate when conflicts arise and helping to draw conclusions through voting when debates are prolonged. They have power but are not in a higher position than Wikipedia. They are also Wikipedia. They are essential to keep Wikipedia afloat. I nteresting point It was interesting that the existence of a merciful dictator was essential. Seeing Wikipedia's merciful dictator reminded me of Namu Wiki of Korea. Like Wikipedia, Namu Wiki is an encyclopedia that an...

Summary Wikipedia is a free encyclopedia that anyone can edit. This article describes Wikipedia's policy to solve problems and problems caused by high openness. Wikipedia operates on the basis of five principles. Public content, transparency, integrity, anti-discrimination and non-interference are Wikipedia's principles. These principles made Wikipedia a successful encyclopedia. The five principles make Wikipedia a free encyclopedia that anyone can edit, while at the same time causing problems. It is a problem due to openness. Wikipedia is described as a successful result of a community, collaboration. But they are encyclopedias. What Wikipedia is aiming for is a quality encyclopedia. There is a possibility that malicious editors will manipulate information and create conflicts between editors. How should Wikipedia deal with it? The answer lies in Wikipedia's Five Principles. Wikipedia manages conflicts through five principles. Managers manage conflicts by givi...

Summary Wikipedia is not a traditional encyclopedia. It is a community and an encyclopedia. Not just one expert writing information, a large number of people writing information . This is cooperation. Wikipedia has five principles. Public content, transparency, integrity, nondiscriminatory, noninterference. These did not appear easily. There has been a lot of effort and history to establish five principles.  Many trials and errors have been experienced to develop their policies and Technology .  Thanks to these trials and errors, Wikipedia won the title of 'Free Encyclopedia for Anyone to Edit' and was able to grow into a community, not an encyclopedia. Interesting point It was amazing that Wikipedia had gone through many trials and errors to get here, and it was interesting that the concept of collective intelligence was not recently introduced. Wikipedia has many different policies and participants. Language diversity increases and participants increase as well. Wo...

Why is Wikipedia less popular in South Korea than in most other developed countries? It was not a familiar concept in Korean society that ordinary people wrote and provided encyclopedic-level information to the public.  The encyclopedia was provided by a group of experts and information sharing by the public was done through compensation. Many search sites, such as Naver and Daum, had systems to reward ordinary people for providing information. A case in point is Naver's "Knowledge-in." When A asks about information, B replies to information and receives compensation. Since this system has been around for a long time, I think Wikipedia, which has no reward, is exotic and has difficulty accessing it. Therefore, Wikipedia has a slow start in Korea and I think it will be less popular than other countries.

Why do you think people find editing Wikipedia fun? It is because he wrote for a non-profit purpose. This is similar to the achievement people feel when they go to volunteer work. I think the joy of being helpful to others when you write a story with the pure purpose of helping others, not the purpose of profit, is the joy of being able to edit Wikipedia is edited. I think this is the biggest reason. It is also not an obligation. Wikipedia would not have succeeded if it had hired editors and rewarded them every time they were required to edit. The sense of achievement that one feels when doing something voluntarily is more incomparable than the sense of achievement that one feels obliged to do. People expect to find editing interesting because voluntary participation has provided a high sense of accomplishment. There are other reasons. The compilation of traditional encyclopedias had been written by a group of experts. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia made by ordinary people...

Why do you think Wikipedia is becoming more accepted? Because of convenience. Their advantages include easy access to people and the amount of information they can find in a single search , Unlike traditional encyclopedias, information interpreted as easy words makes many people look for Wikipedia. With just one Google search, Wikipedia can get the information it wants right away. Before Wikipedia appeared, it took a lot of time because it required a lot of searches to get various information.  The traditional encyclopedia was made by a group of authoritative experts. Therefore, there may be some difficulty for the public to understand the information. Wikipedia consists of easier words, easier sentences because it is written by the public. This is helpful in a large part because you understand information. These differences provided convenience for people, which is why Wikipedia has been used more frequently.

Summary Wikipedia is the result of cooperation. If you describe Wikipedia in one sentence, it's " Many drops make a shower ." One piece of information that individuals have gathers and provides encyclopedias-level information. They provide their own information freely and democratically and, if there are other opinions, discuss them and coordinate their opinions. This figure has a similar personality to democracy. It also has non-profit features, providing people with free information and sources. People provide information for knowledge sharing, not for money. Pure intentions could rise to a large community, encouraging the participation of many people. They create many social benefits. Interesting Point Interested in 'cooperation'. I wonder what details it takes to be a successful collaboration like Wikipedia. I wonder if Wikipedia's cooperative system can be applied in other areas as well. If we apply the Wikipedia model to society and thi...

Summary Wikipedia values the reliability of the source of information. Articles should be written through sources famous for factual confirmation and accuracy. They say that it should be the opinion of a group of experts, not the ones that non-experts read and interpret the data. Examples include authoritative scholars and publicly known media.  Trusted sources are divided according to their field; in science and academia, new information is revealed or replaced by new theories, so old information is less reliable.  Breaking news, discovery that requires verification of new information, is also unreliable information. Secondary information should be used to increase the reliability of this information. Examples include papers, review articles, monographs, or textbooks that review existing studies. This is because it is a proven fact about information.  However, Wikipedia does not only allow objective information. Subjective information is extremely avoided, but some ar...

 Why are you taking this class? What are some typical examples of collective intelligence in the world? Two main things are Linux, which is famous for free software and open source development, and Wikipedia, which you will study in this class. Until now, Wikipedia has received a lot of attention from the academic world and has become the subject of many books. I think Wikipedia has created a new paradigm. Since Wikipedia, experimental collective intelligence has emerged, and the system that will lead the era is claimed to be "cooperation" such as collective intelligence, not reward and punishment. However, cooperation in a capitalist system is a high-risk concept If cooperation is successful, we can make a big profit. If you fail, you will be out of competition. Several successful cases through cooperation are widely known, but they are not easily applied. I want to analyze Wikipedia, a successful partnership through this class. We want to see what the system ...
