Very nice article on the Wikipedia success. Or why being boring and the ultimate process pettiness became the crucial part of the formula. This community really developed a fascinating culture which so far resists to mounting political pressure... But will the editors morale hold?

The idea is interesting... Seeing how the search engine space is degrading quickly I'm tempted to try this actually.

Some powerful bullies want to make the life of editors impossible. Looks like the foundation has the right tools in store to protect those contributors.

Very good background information on the latest attempt at discrediting Wikipedia.

The actual dangers of generative AI. Once the web is flooded with generated content, what will happen to knowledge representation and verifiability?

Very interesting study, shows how toxic comments impact contributions. Gives a good idea of the probability for people to leave. In the case of Wikipedia this highlights reasons which contribute to the lack of diversity in the contributors. This is a complex community issue in general, this studies does a good thing by shedding some light on the dynamics in the case of Wikipedia.

Interesting move, I'm wondering how far this will go. Reuse of those functions in other Wikimedia project will be critical to its success.

Interesting exploration of the Wikipedia community dynamics. This explains quite a few things on its evolution. It highlights how it became a beacon of sanity in the insane political landscape we're collectively facing.

I agree, I don't get why Wikipedia gets bad reputation in school. I'm dismayed at then whatever bogus argument they have being used to push for using Google instead... it's like, back in the days, asking pupils to not use the encyclopedia they maybe had at home and walk into the nearby pub to find information.

Now this is a really strange story... amazing how she managed to be so successful and stay under the radars for so long!
