Alex,
Very cool, that is exactly what I meant! Now you need to offer team
members the red links to work on. You do this by linking out from your
overview page to the subpages. I did one example for [[Finance and
insurance (industry)|Finance and insurance]]. I see that we already
have a redirect
Please move this discussion to WikiEN-l thanks.

I would love to see a Wiki project map out the global economy. In an

Hi all,
Last weekend we had a discussion about how to 'sell' the importance of
Wikipedia to economics-focused people (a.k.a. politicians etc), and the
question came up on how much Wikipedia contributes to the global economy.
Many people access it daily, and the information they get from that
The value would be obvious if Wikipedia were a for profit company listed
on the stock markets. Not that it would have a real value identical to a
computation based on imagined advertising revenue. It is in the billions
though.

In preparation of the strategic planning a few years ago, we at the Audi
committee made some calculation to estimate the theoretical potential of
donation from different perspectives, like what other NGO got.
We then come to the standpoint that the potential was several times that

However, those numbers are not exactly what I'm looking for. I do not want
to know what it would be worth as a company, or how much people are willing
to pay for it. But how big is the impact? How much positive value does
Wikipedia add to the world economy? I hope this number is significantly

Don't worry. Any one who has thought about this sort of thing much has
come away more puzzled than when they began. What for example is the
value of a cigarette? The price is rather easy.

Libraries are indeed a very interesting comparison. There are numerous
studies into valuing the economic value of libraries, with varying
definitions, including [1] from 2002 estimating the economic value of the
British library system and [2] giving an overview of different studies and

Just measure up the homework-for-hire market, what Wikipedia had almost
ruined; that would be already millions of $ worldwide :)

The question by Florence on contacts is still pending. :)
I know/think officewiki is used for most WMF internal contact info,
except emergency contact info hosted (also) elsewhere (or on dev'
mobiles :p ) for when the cluster is down. Something more general and
scalable would be nice.

No, some information which is classified is also contained within
reliable published sources available to the public and we use that

Hi folks,
We published a blogpost in french :
Mathieu,
I just watched a Dutch documentary about this same issue last week.
The main gist of the documentary is that the corporations avoid taxes
in a structured way: they go to tax havens or take advantage of
economic arrangements where the the first five years of residence are
tax free in
Weapons design is obvious; however much intelligence is about rather
ordinary military capability and deployment. We seem to be doing poorly,
from the intelligence standpoint responsibly, regarding laser weapons,
the next big thing I don't think much has been published in public

Regarding laser weapons -
It has been published in public reliable sources, such as Aviation Week,
Proceedings of the Naval Institute, various speciality publications like
Janes Inteligence Review, etc.
We have Category:Military_lasers which is thin but not empty.
