Okay, so our next task is to explore and edit Wikipedia. I have already accomplished both in the recent past so I can comment on that. The post I edited was an entry regarding an episode from the kid's show "Arthur". It was a correction as someone had posted an incorrect name for D.W.'s pet budgie that had died (they had put in Spunky and I changed it to Spanky). Now, this was something I clearly stumbled across on my travels of reading up on "Arthur" but it wasn't terribly easy to find an entry that was already incorrect. I'd be more likely to just add some information that I considered an important addition.
My love for Wiki knows no bounds! Such a quick way to get information that is pertinent and easy to find. However, I'm always reading it with the thought that what I'm currently reading could potentially be garbage! I've even committed the mortal sin of using a Wiki article as a resource for a paper at University! This garnered question marks from the prof :) Therefore, my final word is...use at your own risk!

Spunky vs Spanky! Wow. You should go on Jeopardy!
ReplyDeleteAre the photos on Flickr Photostream yours?
Other than useless entertainment questions, I would fail miserably on Jeopardy :)
ReplyDeleteYes, the Flickr photos are mine...from my trip to Scotland and Ireland :)
