A wiki is a webpage that allows multiple users to collaboratively edit and create content immediately visible to all. Wikis are used to create collections of shared articles, documents, and materials. They have advantages like anyone can edit, changes are immediate, and many hands make light work, but also disadvantages like potential misinformation if not monitored and lack of authority of authors. Wikis work best when users feel ownership over the content and discourse remains respectful.Information Literacy Lessons in Wikipedia

Educational institutions are skeptical of using Wikipedia as a credible source for student research and learning for three main reasons: 1) Wikipedia articles can be edited by anyone, including those with biases or personal agendas, so information may not be verified or factual; 2) Important topics may be overlooked while less significant topics are overly represented based on the interests of editors; and 3) Traditional sources like encyclopedias from Britannica are seen as more authoritative since their authors are vetted experts rather than anonymous online contributors.Write don't cite: Wikipedia in education

A wiki is a website where users can collaboratively add, edit, and modify content using a web browser. Wikis are typically powered by wiki software and are used to create collaborative websites, power community sites, and for knowledge management. Wikis can be a valuable research tool as they allow quick access to general information on a subject from searchable articles. However, the open editable nature of wikis means the information is not always reliable enough to cite in formal research.Wiki development committee

Wikipedia was founded in 2001 by Larry Sanger and Jimmy Wales as a free online encyclopedia that allows collaborative editing. It began as Nupedia and now contains information on a wide variety of topics in many languages. While accessible and frequently updated, Wikipedia is not always reliable due to its open editing structure and potential for anonymous or inaccurate contributions. However, volunteer editors are motivated by values of sharing knowledge freely, social interaction, understanding topics, and career goals. Debate remains around potential biases despite policies for neutrality.Share your knowledge in wikipedia

Wikipedia is a free online encyclopedia created through collaborative contributions. It began in 2001 and has grown rapidly, becoming the largest general reference work on the internet. Wikipedia is owned by the nonprofit Wikimedia Foundation and follows five main pillars - it is an encyclopedia, written from a neutral point of view, uses free content, treats editors with respect, and has no firm values. Anyone can edit Wikipedia articles, though new articles on some language editions require registration, and obvious vandalism is usually quickly removed.Want to be a Wikipedian?
