The most common reason for Wikipedia pages not to be reviewed is lack of popularity.

So, what is the difference between building Wikipedia and Baidu Encyclopedia?

Extra credit:Summary notes of four tips for creating Wikipedia, editing Wikipedia -CAI XIAOHUA

Wikipedia is an excellent place where we can document our expertise and create fact-based touchpoints for our interests. The site's mission is altruistic, Wikipedia administrators guard against content with an obvious purpose, and conscious propaganda is easily punished. There are certain strategies we can employ to increase the chances of an entry meeting Wikipedia standards. Share four points for attention: 1. Is the topic compelling and relevant? Wikipedia defines "notability" as having "garnered widespread worldwide attention" and can be verified by "reliable third-party sources". This is done by examining the extent to which the topic is covered in the media and various publications. Checking out a topic can be as simple as typing it into a search engine and looking for mentions in current news and books. However, there are many topics missing from mainstream media or books, such as places and even historical landmarks. In such cases, census websi...

Reflexive report -CAI XIAOHUA

My first edit was in April 2020, then I started trying to edit more entries, then I started creating entries and even translating English Wikipedia into Chinese Wikipedia.Wikipedia is one of my most visited sites. I visit Wikipedia every day to see what I care about, write about unfinished editing plans, and see little by little perfection.In the last three years of wiki editing, I've learned a lot: first of all, I can understand various fields of knowledge.By writing on Wikipedia, I have expanded my knowledge and corrected many misconceptions.Second, I became familiar with the encyclopedia model.Each type of entry has its own pattern, and the brain has a basic framework for creating new entries over time.These patterns are not limited to Wikipedia, but are also useful for other writing platforms. Wikipedia is a neutral encyclopedia, and a neutral view is one of Wikipedia's five pillars and one of its three core approaches to content.Most of its content is written in a neutral ...

  (1) Summary  Page classification helps users search Wikipedia by classification. Page classification is used to highlight the characteristics of things described in an entry.Pages are categorized, neutral, and follow established rules. Wikipedia has the ability to search by class.For example, if we want to know what sub-disciplines exist under the "physics" category, type "Category: Physics" to get a list of sub-disciplines of physics, such as "classical mechanics," "quantum physics," and "theoretical physics."With this classification, all entries in Wikipedia can be categorized into categories, and Wikipedia displays all categories to which the entry belongs at the bottom of each entry page.Newton, for example, is classified as "British physicist," "Lucas Professor of Mathematics," "Research Fellow at Trinity College, Cambridge," "History of Calculus," and even "The Man Who Died in 1727.We...

Reading 12: Wikipedia:Article development- CAI XIAOHUA

(1) Summary  Many categories of these pages can let us understand how to grow in Wikipedia.This page describes all stages of life and lists the methods we can help the article grow into the next stage.  The DYK section showcases new or expanded articles that are selected through an informal review process.   (2)Interesting point  DYK is not: A smaller-scale version of either featured content or good articles, though selected good articles do appear in the DYK box. Articles must meet the basic criteria set out on this page but do not have to be of very high quality. As DYK's main purpose is to showcase new and improved content, it is not expected that articles appearing on DYK would be considered among the best on Wikipedia. (3)Discussion After understanding these contents, what do you think the most important point of the article is?

Reading 10: Remix culture-CAI XIAOHUA

     (1) Summary  This is a cultural phenomenon in which people combine, edit, and deconstruct like a mix to create a new work or product based on an original creation, which is called "secondary creation" or "re-creation. In fact, every netizen—that is, us—can be counted as creators.In fact, this creative culture is so wide that any form of participation can be regarded as secondary creation, which, because it retains many of the original settings or images, relies heavily on the cultural background and context. (2)Interesting point  We just stare at the mobile phone, look around, come across something that is suitable for imitation and transformation (called "stemmed" in Internet parlance), take it, make it into a catchphrase/short video/emoticon package and put it back on the Internet. Then they no longer belong to us, but are discovered by the next person, and the third and fourth creations are made, and finally form the "pop culture" we see now, ...

Reading 8:List of hoaxes on Wikipedia- CAI XIAOHUA

 (1) Summary This is a known historical scam on Wikipedia, and it exists to document scams on Wikipedia to improve our ability to detect scams. If a hoax has not been found factually false for more than a month, or has been reported in authoritative media, Wikipedia considers it noteworthy enough to be included in this list. Some edited entries are pollution of a large amount of real and credible information, and are also a blow to the credibility of the platform. Just looking around the world, there are quite a few similar things. As far as the information on Wikipedia's hoax list is concerned, there are countless fictional characters, places, tools, TV shows, and academic concepts. (2)Interesting point  In 2012, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office published a new Apple patent called "Electronic Analysis of Pollution Technology."

   (1) Summary Since its inception, Wikipedia has been shunned almost unanimously by academia, almost unanimously, that is, not to be used in academic research or writing. First, the accuracy is poor.The accuracy of such information cannot be guaranteed, given that it can be written and edited by everyone and that such acts can take place anytime, anywhere.While everyone can write, edit, and make sure to change mistakes at any time, some of them have been there for a long time, not just months or even years.For more abstract topics, fewer people read and fewer articles edited, the probability of this error is higher.Second, its credibility is low.According to a 2009 survey, more than 87% of Wikipedia's editors are male and under the age of 27, with the majority coming from Europe and North America.Because of the lack of diversity, the content not only does not fully reflect the diversity of human knowledge, but also correspondingly lacks a diversity of views, even with di...

 (1) Summary The Wikipedia community casts Wikipedia. They are the builders, souls, and masters of Wikipedia. They are willing to spend a long time writing every entry, checking every change, and helping every new editor on Wikipedia. When Jimmy Wales Cye created this website, he certainly didn't expect that when he go online every day,a bunch of online administrators from every country told him what the status of Wikipedia's server is like. Every year, people are willing to donate their income to Wikipedia to support the operation of this website. What is it that makes them gather in a website that doesn't get any points, titles, benefits? Treat them like 「participants」, not 「consumers」.  Wikipedia is clear about its philosophy and essential purpose, and ensures that its words and deeds are sincerely in line with this philosophy. What makes a product powerful is not its size and strength, but its culture, a solid value and belief, and  This kind of thing g...

     (1) Summary The success of Wikipedia is the most famous example of many wiki phenomena.  "Wiki" allows logged-in users to modify their pages.  For Wikipedia, anyone can participate in editing.  The word "Wiki" means "quickly" in Hawaiian, and it also means "I know . . . ".  "Wiki" has thus become the purest form of participatory creativity and intelligence sharing, and David Weinberger is writing a book on collective intelligence, which he calls "the socialization of expertise." In new media, "wiki" and blog form the perfect complement.  Whereas blogs record unadorned and completely personal opinions, wikis directly and unequivocally allow a group of people to form a unified point of view.  The wiki's strength is in summarizing debates, but it's not for extreme opinions. In "wikis," Wikipedia's size sets it apart.  According to Joe Kraus, co-founder and CEO of the well-known JotSpot company...

   (1) Summary 1 . To pay attention to the Wikipedia editor rules. Although everyone can edit, but most of the theme of the entry of or by one or two editors.Other the editor was corrected a clerical error or something.So in reading attention should be concerned about the references too, when a combination of the two more easy to obtain a complete understanding of content. 2 . Wikipedia content is concise. The content of Wikipedia is concise and to the point. Generally speaking, the creation of Wikipedia entries does not exceed one screen and can only be used as a reference.  Because of such an entry, the editor probably wrote it simply based on his own understanding, and the quality is difficult to guarantee. 3 . View entry history. Click "View History" in the upper right corner.  Especially when looking at articles related to politics.  If there is a major modification recently, even after the modification is revoked (or called rollback), and anti-revoke,...

Reading 2-CAI XIAOHUA

   (1) Summary In my reading, I felt the "freedom", "cooperation" and "interaction" on Wikipedia.Wikipedia is a free and open community where you can contribute and communicate, where you can find the information you want or create a new entry for yourself. (2)Interesting point  It is mentioned that, according to recent research, Wikipedia's coverage of general knowledge and technology issues is quite good, but it also has blind spots in other areas of expertise.Users seem to be most interested in people because articles about humans (e.g., biography, culture, entertainment, self and sex) are the largest categories of content and the most visited by readers. Does this mean that Wikipedia, while comprehensive, is more humanistic in content and less editorial in other areas? In fact, it can be found. People read books and film and television works according to their personal preferences, but when searching for information and watching news, most of them ...
