Ways of the Wiki

Over this semester I got to cover some social networking online communities and a whole lot of video sharing online communities. If time had permited, my next venture would have been wikis. But, just to touch base on some interesting wiki info that I came across, check out this blog: “Battleground Wikipedia”

In the article, TechCrunch blogger, Michael Arrington discusses the issue of editing a wiki about yourself. Apparently, taking the initiative to edit info within a wiki about yourself isn’t acceptable procedure amongst the wikiing community. This is obviously just a big no no when it comes to wikis, something that I was unaware of. I know that if a wiki about myself ever came in to existence, I would want to edit the things that weren’t true. What do you guys think?
