You must be filtering my messages... 8^) -----Original Message----- From: John Steck [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, February 20, 2005 2:28 PM To: Vortex Subject: Wikipedia Vorts, My apologies if this isn't new to everyone, but just stumbled across Wikipedia. It's an open source encyclopedia project. Anyone and everyone is invited to contribute and edit sections. It's an honor system that relies on volunteer subject matter champions to maintain sections they are most interested in. There is a nice article about it in the current issue of Wired magazine (March 2005). Since we have our fair share of 'experts' on this list, this might be something many here might want to actively participate in. Interestingly enough, there seems to be no restrictions on what you can contribute. You can publish a whole category if you want.
This is what they have for "Cold Fusion": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_fusion -john -----Original Message----- From: Jed Rothwell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 02, 2005 8:34 AM To: vortex-L@eskimo.com Subject: Article about Wikipedia This is important. This encyclopedia now has 500,000 articles, compared to Britannica's 80,000. See: http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/13.03/wiki.html?tw=wn_tophead_4 I should make some corrections & additions to their article about cold fusion. Ed Storms should probably review it, too.
