1, Summary：

Remix culture, also called read-write culture, is a term describing a society that allows and encourages the generation of new creative works or derivative works of products by combining or editing existing materials. By default, a remix culture will allow the refinement, alteration, integration, or other remixing of creators' and copyright owners' works, with or without permission. While combining elements has been a common practice for artists in all fields throughout human history, the growth of proprietary copyright restrictions over the past few decades has been increasingly limited by law. Harvard Law Professor Lawrence Lessig believes that remixing is the ideal concept of human creativity and has been working since the early 2000s to transfer the concept of remixing to the digital age.

    I think there are many areas where remix culture will occur. Of course, copyright has the premise that there is no problem. Remix culture has the advantage of being able to expand existing concepts and serve as a starting point for new creation, but problems such as copyright problems caused by indiscriminate remixes and decreased morale of existing creators can arise. Personally, I think that companies can remix each other's to some extent through agreement.

  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?

 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. One interesting point is how the author describes the culture and community of Wikipedia and how it has been shaped by authorial leadership. The idea of ...
