An interesting article in the Wall Street Journal about the effect that time has had on Wikipedia’s “workforce” of volunteer contributors, editors, and moderators.
It seems that as the rate of contributions to the site has accelerated, many of these volunteers have become overwhelmed and frustrated with the constant bickering about content accuracy, rate of vandalism of articles, and the sheer volume of new additions.
If Wikipedia wants to become the premier (accurate) source of all human knowledge to date, it will have to find a way to draw back this critical human resource.
It might not be the worst idea to partner with actual encyclopedias (are they still around??) and universities…
