1) Summary

 Wikipedia is a Wiki-based online encyclopedia, which itself stands for enkyklios and paydeia in Greek.Wikipedia's ultimate goal is to create an encyclopedia of all human knowledge, which has been successfully achieved through the efforts of many creators. 

 Wikipedia is a free encyclopedia and is not for profit.Wikipedia exists to make knowledge available to everyone for free.

 Wikipedia is characterized by "neutral point of view", "no original research" and "verifiability".All three would mean less content on Wikipedia and, in some cases, would prevent adding real statements.There is no simple a priori answer to every case, but good editorial judgment and reasonable human commitment to quality are the best human answers ever found.


2)Interesting point

 Wikipedia is not just an online multilingual encyclopedia, it is also a community.Unlike previous documents standing on library shelves, Wikipedia is far removed from institutions, people, and discussions.Anyone can contribute content on Wikipedia, communicate, and get all kinds of information from different people.I think that's the charm of Wikipedia.


3)Discussion point

 What's the problem with authors constantly erasing or revoking each other's edits when everyone can participate in Wikipedia editors?

 1. Summary The article argues that understanding Wikipedia requires appreciating its community and collaborative culture, but also recognizing the challenges it faces from personal differences and external threats. Despite its collaborative nature, Wikipedia has been shaped by authorial leadership, with an informal benevolent dictator guiding the community and mediating disputes. However, this leadership role can be challenging to balance, as new responsibilities and authority may arise. The article uses examples, such as Sanger's reflections on his departure from the community and discussions about Wales's role, to illustrate the delicate balance of leadership in the Wikipedia community. 2. Interesting As an AI language model, I do not have personal opinions, but I can identify some points that may be interesting to readers.

  1. Summary After reading this article, I understand that Wikipedia articles must have reliable sources, and the opinions in the sources should be neutral. Articles should be based on reliable, independent, published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy. This means that we publish only the analysis, views, and opinions of reliable authors, and not those of Wikipedians who have read and interpreted primary source material for themselves. 2. Interesting points News headlines—including subheadlines—are not a reliable source.  I think this is important because some news headlines are written to grab the reader's attention quickly and briefly; their news content may be exaggerated or lack context, and even sometimes contain sensational claims. 3. Discussion points Do you know how to test reliable sources?
