Reading 9: ZENG WANTING

 1）Summarize of metirals

The free culture movement is a social movement that uses the Internet or other media to propagate and modify all kinds of free content works. The movement is against the current overly restrictive copyright laws, which many activists say have suppressed creativity, and calls the system a "culture of licenses."

The background of the free culture movement is knowledge sharing. Creative Commons, founded by Lawrence Reziger, provides a licensing agreement for creators to share works under certain conditions. It also provides an online search engine where you can search Creative Commons licensed works.

The term "free culture" originates from the 2003 World Information Society Summit, when it was used to present the first public licensing agreement for artists. A "liberal-arts license" developed by a licensing advocacy group in France since 2001. The term is further developed in Lawrence Lysiger's 2004 book the Culture of Freedom.

 

2）Something interseting I learned


The free culture movement is in line with the free software movement in the position of sharing creations freely. Richard Storman, a member of the Free Software movement, is the originator of the GNU program, an advocate of free information sharing, and is famous for suggesting that free software is "not free, but as' freedom of expression '."

 

3）My question


Free culture is a very test of the user's knowledge and consciousness, can it be popularized？

    There will be differences in perspectives depending on the individual, but I think it has already become popular.

    Free culture can be embodied in the use of literary creation, including knowledge sharing is also a kind of free culture.

 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.

  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?
