Wikipedia - SourceWatch Users who have not contributed to articles are allowed to engage in on-line policy discussions at the discretion of administrators.

Wikipedia:Protection policy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Administrators have the ability to protect pages such that they cannot be edited, or images so that they cannot be overwritten, except by other administrators. The policy on not editing a protected page does not apply in the same way to the semi-permanently protected pages. Feel free to update the page as needed, but make sure that changes you make to this policy really do reflect consensus, before you make them. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Wikipedia:Protection_policy   (965 words)

Wikipedia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Administrators are the largest such group, privileged with the ability to prevent articles from being edited, delete articles, or block users from editing in accordance with community policy. It is created on the wikipedia.org website using a type of software called a "wiki," from the Hawaiian wiki wiki ("quick"). Maintenance tasks are performed by a group of volunteer developers, stewards, bureaucrats, and administrators, which number in the hundreds. www.voyager.in /Wikipedia   (2308 words)

Wiki Pedia There is a legitimate worry that the wikipedia has taken more than one step down the path of an official POV, and has left objective reality out of the debate between the groupthink of the administrators, and the "fringe" views expressed by some newbies. WikiPedia has now been quoted as a source in a major newspaper (is this the first instance?): This wiki is a history of computing which includes developing ideas, processes and procedures, while WikiPedia is a record of what has already been and does not have the same sense of evolution. c2.com /cgi/wiki?WikiPedia   (1484 words)

Wiki Pedia There is a legitimate worry that the wikipedia has taken more than one step down the path of an official POV, and has left objective reality out of the debate between the groupthink of the administrators, and the "fringe" views expressed by some newbies.

Wikipedia Watch The process itself is open, but the identities of the administrators are usually cloaked behind a username and a Gmail address. And finally, I believe that articles on living persons should be generated in such a way that the person is notified, if at all possible, that the article is under development, and has the right to demand minimal standards of evidence to back up assertions made in the article. If the title or snippet in a link itself contributes to this impression, then the full text is not researched by anyone. www.wikipedia-watch.org   (2013 words)

Wikipedia reinvents information searching - Sci-Tech In the run up to the 2004 presidential election, the George W. Bush article was being edited with such ferocity and from so many bias angles that administrators were forced to lock the record. And by users, I mean you, me, or anyone else in the world who wishes to contribute their wealth of knowledge to the project. Someone may post inaccurate or biased information relating to a specific topic, but Wiki's growing base of over 10,000 free public contributors are always reading an revising, and ensuring that the site's content is as honest and true as possible. www.thetriangle.org /news/2005/01/14/SciTech/Wikipedia.Reinvents.Information.Searching-833083.shtml   (895 words)

This wiki is a history of computing which includes developing ideas, processes and procedures, while WikiPedia is a record of what has already been and does not have the same sense of evolution.

BBC - h2g2 - Wikipedia There is a small group of administrators, with the power to block contributions from particular IP addresses, and with the power to permanently delete articles, but their services are rarely called upon. Discussion is possible, by appending a text page to an article and typing comments into it; but this is reserved for discussion of the content of the articles. If there is an article of that name already in the encyclopedia, this automatically produces a link to it, which is displayed in blue. www.bbc.co.uk /dna/h2g2/A918434   (1241 words)

Wikipedia Encyclopedia Article, Definition, History, Biography Administrators are the largest such group, privileged with the ability to prevent articles from being edited, delete articles, or block users from editing in accordance with community policy. For example, the then-new article on the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake on its English edition was cited often by the press shortly after the incident. Regular users often maintain a 'watchlist' of articles of interest to them, so that they are immediately shown which of these articles have changed since their last log in. www.thelocalcolorartgallery.com /encyclopedia/Wikipedia   (5028 words)

User talk:JorgeGG - Meta I will be communicating with other administrators and asking the Spanish wikipedia.

Wikipedia:Administration FAQ They tend to be friendly folks that are willing to help you, if you post on their "talk page". Administrators can go to Special:Ipblocklist and click on "unblock" as required.

Home - Wikimedia Foundation A minor edit war resulted at some point when the administrators of the english wikipedia argued over whether linking to the Red Cross or other charities from the fundraising sitenotice was prudent, in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. The Wikimedia Foundation, Inc. is an international non-profit organization dedicated to encouraging the growth, development and distribution of free, multilingual content, and to providing the full content of these wiki-based projects to the public free of charge. Afterward, he came onto IRC to hang out in #wikipedia for a while, where he was duly lauded. wikimediafoundation.org /wiki/Home   (1446 words)

About the WikiEN-l mailing list - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Users who are extremely disruptive or uncivil may be moderated or banned from the mailing list by the administrators. The WikiEN-l mailing list is run by Andrew Lih, David Gerard, Ed Poor, Fennec Foxen, and Mark Ryan.

A Criticism of the Wikipedia: with Mark Pellegrini and Philip Sandifer Such problems not only result in poorly written articles, which are limited by the incompetence of the highest-ranking administrators; but, this arrangement also inevitably results in censorship, particularly in articles of interest to the site’s ranking members (as discussed in the next two paragraphs). Articles with a single picture are encouraged to have that picture at the top of the article, right-aligned. Your article editing is very, very little compared to the enormous amount of "contributions" (to use the term loosely) to arbitration and policy issues. www.kapitalism.net /thoughts/wikipedia.htm   (5301 words)

A Criticism of the Wikipedia: with Mark Pellegrini and Phil Sandifer Several administrators attempted to obscure the issue, by acting as if their opposition to the poll was based purely on technical and semantic grounds (they thus tried to pretend that while they oppose the poll itself, they still oppose all forms of tyranny... Finally, a further compromise was reached,  in which the picture was placed twice (at top and bottom) – such an arrangement was not intended as a permanent solution, but the idea was that people could stop fighting over it, and take some time to discuss their viewpoints. Now, on most websites this is not an issue; afterall, I am a tyrant here at kapitalism.net; but, and this is an important point, kapitalism.net is not pretending to be some new-age website of ‘freedom, learning, consensus, and discussion’. www.kapitalism.net /thoughts/wikipedia.htm   (6524 words)

The Wikipedia Hive Mind What I do know is that the editors and administrators feel that they are untouchable, and the Wikimedia Foundation also feels that it is untouchable because it has a disclaimer. The first is that anyone can edit an article, and there is no guarantee that any article you read has not been edited maliciously, and remains uncorrected in that state, at the precise time that you access that article. At the moment, this is an intellectual interest of mine, and I am not currently claiming that I have been libeled. www.wikipedia-watch.org /hivemind.html   (2224 words)

OrthodoxWiki:Style Manual - OrthodoxWiki The Style Manual is "enforced" primarily by the users of the site but also by the administrators.

I suspect, however, that the odd and particularly unwikilike nature of interactions on wikipedia stem mainly from the separation of content and discussion, which is exiled to talk pages. My question was why it developed such generally different dynamics than at least most other wikis, and I'm wondering if the lack of discussion on the top level might be part of it. c2.com /cgi/wiki?WikiPedia   (2112 words)

User talk:Angela - Meta It seems that current administrators have abandoned this wikipedia and I would like to continue translating the system messages. Die ist die Fortsetzung des Themas "Interlingue": Für andere "Kleinsprachen" wären gerade Nachrichten in der Landesprache sehr wichtig, weil teilweise für die Sprecher der Sprachen gar keine anderen Informationsquellen existieren, als staatliches Fernsehen in diesen Sprachen. It isn't really a vote, so I don't think I need to add my support. meta.wikimedia.org /wiki/User_talk:Angela   (3694 words)
