Maintaining Wikipedia's Accuracy
There was an article on
The New York Times
website today, titled
Growing Wikipedia Revises Its 'Anyone Can Edit' Policy that discusses
the way Wikipedia maintains the accuracy of its contents.
Wikipedia is an online encyclopedia
maintained by volunteers, which provides information on a multitude of
topics. It is a free alternative to other online encyclopedia's, such
as Encyclopedia Britannica.
Wikipedia allows anyone to edit most articles. So how does Wikipedia
prevent articles being defaced by online vandals who can think of no productive
way to spend their time or those with an axe to grind. It does so through
volunteer administrators who help maintain the quality of the information
on the website.
