Faire un site web en format wiki. DeletionPedia. Who Writes Wikipedia? I first met Jimbo Wales, the face of Wikipedia, when he came to speak at Stanford. Wales told us about Wikipedia’s history, technology, and culture, but one thing he said stands out. “The idea that a lot of people have of Wikipedia,” he noted, “is that it’s some emergent phenomenon — the wisdom of mobs, swarm intelligence, that sort of thing — thousands and thousands of individual users each adding a little bit of content and out of this emerges a coherent body of work.”† But, he insisted, the truth was rather different: Wikipedia was actually written by “a community … a dedicated group of a few hundred volunteers” where “I know all of them and they all know each other”.

Really, “it’s much like any traditional organization.” The difference, of course, is crucial. Not just for the public, who wants to know how a grand thing like Wikipedia actually gets written, but also for Wales, who wants to know how to run the site. So did the Gang of 500 actually write Wikipedia? Excellent article. Organisation. Litesum - Instant Wikipedia Summaries. Lexisum - Lexicon Wikipédia Summary. PediaPress – Home.
