Wikipedia: School of Open course

Posted on 05:40 by Unknown
Wikipedia One of the tragedies of Wikipedia has been that academics shunned it rather than embracing it, thus acting out the tragedy of the commons.

If you've ever considered contributing to Wikipedia, I'd urge you to engage with an online course: Writing Wikipedia Articles: The Basics and Beyond which starts on 6th August.
