		to write or print on: the piece of paper becomes a document; this may be for keeping a record (or in the case of printing from a computer or copying from another paper: an additional record) and for communication; see also reading.
		Paper remained a luxury item through the centuries, until the advent of steam-driven paper making machines in the 19th century, which could make paper with fibres from wood pulp.

	Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not - Simple English Wikipedia
		It may be too difficult for some users to understand.
		If a common phrase is used in an article and not many people may know what it means, you should say what it means.
		You can write an article on how a slang phrase came to be, or the culture that uses that slang.

	White paper - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		A white paper can be an authoritative report on a major issue, as by a team of experts; a government report outlining policy; or a short treatise whose purpose is to educate (contrast) industry customers.
		Although a white paper may occasion consultation as to the details of new legislation, it does signify a clear intention on the part of a government to pass new law.
		By contrast, green papers, which are issued less frequently, are more open-ended and may merely propose a strategy to be implemented in the details of other legislation.

	Jonathan D. Nolen - Wikipedia is not infallible; but then neither are we
		Assume that such authorities deserve implicit trust and you might as well be living in the middle ages.
		With a traditional encyclopedia, the writing, editing and assembling of the articles is an opaque process.
		You can see what articles were added and deleted; sentences that were excised as incorrect or non-nuetral; arguments that the community had over facts and opinions; who eventually won and why.

	Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		If you are interested in using the wiki technology for a collaborative effort on something else, even if it is just a single page, there are many sites that provide wiki hosting (free or for money).
		Such details are, however, very welcome at Wikitravel, but note that due to license incompatibility you cannot copy content wholesale unless you are the copyright holder.
		In difficult cases, straw polls may be conducted to help determine consensus, but are to be used with caution and not to be treated as binding votes.

	Wikipedia - Uncyclopedia
		Similarly, their Al Gore article states that Al Gore was born to human parents, hiding the reality that he is an android prototype built by the Nike corporation.
		They, however, conveniently change them to exclude information that contradicts their fictional universe – in the case of these templates, known facts that stub authors usually smoke crack and that computers are trying to take over the Earth...
		These "joke deletions" are a fun activity that users play towards each other- whomever writes the cleverest message gets to delete someone else's article, and the author of said article checks up on it only to find it removed, and promptly dies in various fits of laughter.

		A newspaper is a lightweight and disposable periodical, usually printed on low-cost paper called newsprint, containing a journal of current news in a variety of topics.
		A modern daily newspaper is generally printed on large sheets of paper, usually on a thin, somewhat rough paper known as newsprint.
		The more sensational tabloids such as Bild are commonly called Boulevardzeitungen (boulevard papers), since they are normally available at the newsstand only; by contrast, the more serious Abonnementzeitungen (subscription papers) sell a large amount of their circulation to subscribers.

	K5 Article on Wikipedia Anti-elitism. Many-to-Many: (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		One thing that bothers me most with wikipedia is that you cannot use it in an argument, because your adversary can allways say that you have written the text yourself.
		Of course, like the rest of the world, there is a fair number of academics that are against wikipedia, free software and every collaborative and open project (they happen to be the elitists), but that does not mean it's the "academia model".
		wikipedia removes control on info flow...britanica and harvard will be worried because their control of info gives them power; wikipedia undermines that control.

		All changes to articles are tracked, and since old versions of articles can be easily reinstated, it is easier to fix an article than it is to damage it.
		You can go in and post all sorts of arrant nonsense, and then be reversed later (kind of like these Comments sections!) but the arrant nonsense will instantaneously appear and remain until someone comes along and improves it.
		Links can be examined to determine whether they are primary of secondary sources, which permits one to make an educated judgement on the validity of the data.

	Wiki is not paper - Meta
		This would certainly never be tolerated in a paper encyclopedia, which is why Encyclopedia Britannica has such limited information on the topic (and on most other topics).
		The articles in a paper encyclopedia are all compiled and printed at roughly the same time, and old sets are generally replaced by whole new sets.
		Not only will a list of recent celebrity deaths obviously need to be rewritten once those deaths aren't recent anymore, but any article that links to it because a certain celebrity has just died may leave the reader wondering what the link was for, since the celebrity will no longer appear on that page.

		We can take it that the statement represents the view of the last person to modify it, and those of unknown others who have chosen not to modify it further or to "revert" it, in the lingo, meaning to return it to a prior state.
		All these arguments aside, the article is what might be expected of a high school student, and at that it would be a C paper at best.
		Of course, this may be just me. I have had the experience of making this argument before a roomful of sales executives and marketing people and being met with looks of bafflement on the one hand and dismissal on the other.

	Meatball Wiki: WikiPediaIsNotAnEncyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		In Berlin at the Wizards of OS conference, I had a discussion with ErikMoeller about how WikiPedia wasn't really an encyclopaedia in the Victorian sense, but rather it was more like a collective notetaking exercise.
		After a pause at WikiPedia I wrote and read a little more during the last two months and I don't remember pages that were not acceptable, the majority were even excellent.
		I would argue rather that wikipedia may be evolving an alternative means of creating authoritative information, similar to the way that democracy provides an alternative means of creating authoritative leadership.

	Phantom authority
		In this paper there is another significant distinction to keep in mind, between anonymous and heterogeneous crowding (Scotchmer, 2002).
		This paper has dealt mainly with the issues of authority, reputation, recruitment and retention of members in purpose–built virtual communities, engaged in creating horizontal collections of information goods.
		In their case, the positive externality generated by increasing the size of the network provides a stronger incentive that outweighs the assumption of club theory that there is value in exclusivity.

		It's quite amusing that you would accuse others of being "in the denier and revisionist camp", of having a "huge preoccupation with the Jews", and state that their "opinion is thus discredited for bias".
		If you used an account, then you would have an edit history, and you would start to build a reputation in the wikipedia community; people would know which edits were yours, and they would be able to form a realistic picture of where you were coming from.
		Nobody came to me and said "some anonymous editor is repeatedly making edits against consensus"; all it takes is several people who have the same article on their watchlists.

	Introduction
		In particular, I argue that the “neutral point of view policy” policy is not a source of conflict, as it is often perceived to be, but a resolution shaping norm.
		Yet, the NPOV policy is quite the opposite and instead recognizes the multitude of viewpoints and provides an epistemic stance in which they all can be recognized as instances of human knowledge – right or wrong.
		In this paper, I briefly reviewed a few concepts from the interdependent decision-making literature that are relevant to this community.

		The programmer and author Eric Raymond analysed the Linux phenomenon in his 1997 paper, The Cathedral and the Bazaar, which has since become the manifesto for the open source movement.
		Raymond compared the traditional school of software development to cathedrals, which meant they were "carefully crafted, by individual wizards or small bands of mages (magicians) working in splendid isolation".
		The critical law of the bazaar school of publishing, Raymond claimed, was that "given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow".

		Nick, you avoided his main point: wikipedia’s anti-elitism discourages actual elites from participating.
		From past experience, Experts from academia are used to writing papers, which are submitted to publication editors, peer reviewed, sent back for corrections etc etc - this process is considered normal and can take months (or for complex papers, years) to complete.
		In academia, you write papers to survive; your status is determined by the number (and only occasionally by the quality :) of the papers you produce, and have accepted by respected journals.

		In addition, the site, which has had a low profile and a relatively small group of regular contributors, was seen as a gauge of government tolerance for the free flow of information on the Internet in China.
		Chinese officials typically crack down on dissidents and heighten censorship efforts each year in the run up to the anniversary.
		There are not many solid grounds on which we can argue for the block to be stopped," he said, noting contributors are waiting to see whether the block will be lifted or made permanent.

		There is no inherent reason why the wikipedia principle should not work given that all people working on wikipedia would be aware that they are working on an encyclopaedia.
		But the empirical evidence is that it will surpass other sources of information within a few years, and people should start adjusting their theories to fit the facts, not tell us the facts can't be true because the theory doesn't allow for it.
