Chris Anderson on Wikipedia - Dictionary of Arguments
I 69 Wikipedia/Anderson: While Wikipedia reacts extremely quickly with corrections, Encyclopedia Britannica had to wait for the next print run. However, their biggest weakness is the omission. The Britannica cannot bring the millions of individual articles that Wikipedia has to offer. It is necessary to take Wikipedia cum grano salis ((s) it is not infallible). It should be the first port of call for information, but not the last._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number. The corresponding books are indicated on the right hand side. ((s)…): Comment by the sender of the contribution. Translations: Dictionary of Arguments The note [Concept/Author], [Author1]Vs[Author2] or [Author]Vs[term] resp. "problem:"/"solution:", "old:"/"new:" and "thesis:" is an addition from the Dictionary of Arguments. If a German edition is specified, the page numbers refer to this edition. |
