Trusting the shared, open community

Posted by tom | Dec 16, 2005

Came across this piece on my recent travels . . . Author of false Wikipedia entry apologizes: Tennessee man says false entry on Seigenthaler part of joke on co-worker, wonder how they're getting along with their previous resolutions Wikipedia to tighten editorial rules: Founder says balance needed to prevent vandalism, abuse. I have to admit that I wasn't sure what to make of Wikipedia as a resource. I love the concept, but seems that the shared, open, on-line community is hard to come by considering our broken structures, ideas, and very minds/beings. But I think it is value to keep trying, with the added editorial oversight.
