2012-01-17 11:04:00 The blackout beginning tomorrow at midnight & lasting 24 hours will mark Wikipedia’s silent protest against the atrocious Stop Online Piracy & Protect IP Acts (SOPA & PIPA).

In a reaction, typical to Jimmy Wales, said, “Student warning! Do your homework early. Wikipedia protesting bad law on Wednesday! #sopaâ€. What’s this Blackout?

Wikipedia Turns Eleven, Users Celebrate Worldwide
2012-01-16 12:34:00 Eleven years ago, in 2001, Wikipedia dot org was born. Part of the Wikimedia Foundation, it is a student’s gift from heaven, a researcher’s delight and a professor’s nightmare. Wikipedia aims to collect all the information known to mankind under one (virtual) roof, and they have done an admirable job of trying to do so. With tens of thousands of regular editors and contributors across the globe, they are the go-to website for pretty much anyone searching for information. On Sunday, 15th January, Wikipedia marked their 11th Anniversary. On turning 10 in 2001, Wikipedia Editors across the world had parties celebrating the milestone. This year too, Wikipedia Day did not go unnoticed. Seven different events at different cities across India were held. On the occasion of Wikipedia completing 11 years, the newest chapter of the Wikimedia group has launched at wikimedia.in. This helps users access articles in local languages with greater ease. They also hope to get more a...

Wikipedia Wants To Join Hands With Indian Schools, Universities & Museu
2011-11-21 11:40:00 Wikipedia has announced its intentions to partner with schools and come up with appropriate versions of Wikipedia aimed at children. Wikimedia Foundation, which owns & operates the multilingual reference website, intends to partner with museums, state and national libraries and national photo archives for knowledge and information sharing. Commenting on the initiative for India, foundation’s Chief Global Development Officer Barry Newstead said, “In another initiative, we plan to partner with numerous universities throughout India and have student become regular contributors to Wikipedia than just being readers“.

Sathya Sai Baba and the unpalatable truth
2011-09-21 13:15:00 ?Speak truth, speak pleasantly and do not speak unpalatable truth? (Sanathana Sarathi October 2003, p. 296). Almost every statement of any import will be “unpalatable” to someone on the planet, so this extremely vague advice – if religiously followed (as Sai devotees are required to so) would lead to hardly anyone telling anything. Many Sai ...
Wikipedia Launches Campus Ambassadors Program In Pune
2011-06-07 15:16:00 Pune is all set to become the first city outside the United States to host the Wikipedia Campus Ambassadors Program. This program intends to take the help of teachers and students of various universities in Pune and integrate wikipedia into the university’s curriculum. The program has been brought to India since there aren’t a lot of Indian contributors on Wikipedia. As a part of this program students would be given assignments which would be written on wikipedia instead of writing it in traditional reports. Wikipedia has already selected 22 campus ambassadors to assist them in raising awareness about wikipedia, and how it is an educational tool where students can contribute and not just copy information for their projects. Hisham Mundol, who leads India Programmes, said “The campus ambassadors are essentially volunteers who would work with teachers to incorporate Wikipedia and train students on how to write articles on Wikipedia. They would support both students ...

Guru?s Partisans Banned From Editing Of Wiki ?Sathya Sai Baba? Entry
2011-01-24 00:39:00 Like 'democracy' itself, the Wikipedia online encyclopedia can be a great idea. Against large odds, it has just reached its first decade of existence. Wiki is meant to be a vast knowledge base on almost an infinity of topics. Servers worldwide ensure that it is kept secure and online, and that anyone from anywhere, given that one is equipped with a computer and an internet account, can contribute. That is to say - supposedly - provided they adhere to certain laid-down guidelines and methods. There is also a system of arbitrators - dotted (some would say, far too sparsely dotted) round the world - who can assist contributors who fall into difficulty or dispute. The theory is that errors are wide open to be corrected by the original contributor or other users, if not at once then over time. Prima facie, what can be more 'democratic' than all this? The Wiki catch-cry is: anyone can edit. However, what suppose many cannot edit for nuts?! Alike, many lay and academic contributor...

Wikipedia To Remain Free, As Indian Cities Gear Up For Its 10th Anniversary
2011-01-04 09:00:00 If you had visited Wikipedia anytime in the last few months, there’s no doubt you would have seen Wikipedia Founder Jimmy Wales’ Appeal. And even though a section of the Internet ridiculed Wikipedia for..well..the omnipresence of its founder, it was all for a good cause – To Support Wikipedia. All sorts of gag images were being circulated in Twitter, heck there was even a Chrome extension. Wikipedia and Wikimedia’s other web properties have many loyal users and that came through with more than half a million donating a total of $16 million. With an overall Alexa Traffic rank of 8 – Wikipedia is the only ad free, user supported website in the top 10. Real time statistics of donations are available here and account for only the online donations. Which is why you see a total figure of under $14 million, the remaining donations came offline. Earlier Wikimedia had announced that it needed a total of $16million to keep operating and was able to achieve that f...

Britannica To Compete With Wikipedia In India?
2010-12-13 08:40:00 There is no denying the fact that the entry of wikipedia in our lives has made a significant change in the quest for information, the optimal use being made by students who sometimes wonder what their life would be without this storehouse of knowledge. What do you generally do when you want to procure information about a particular topic? You log on to Google or Wikipedia and just search for it. I remember during my childhood that I used to consult the Britannica encyclopedia in my school when I had to complete a project. The 242 year old information storehouse is now trying to entice the Indian population by tying up with Airtel in India to reach out to the broadband subscriber base. Jorge Cauz, president of Britannica, was of the opinion that such tie ups had worked fruitfully in other countries and so, will work well for the 10 million broadband subscribers it is initially targeting. Airtel users will have free access to Britannica online for two years. In addition, the subscrip...

As you read this well-sourced excerpt from Wikipedia, think "tea party
2010-05-06 05:12:00 Cross-posted to my blog, because I am an attention whore. It is believed by some that populist movements can be precursors for, or building blocks for, fascist movements. Conspiracist scapegoating employed by various populist movements can create 'a seedbed for fascism.' National socialist populism interacted with and facilitated fascism in interwar Germany. In this case, distressed middle-class populists during the pre-Nazi Weimar period mobilized their anger at government and big business. The Nazis 'parasitized the forms and themes of the populists and moved their constituencies far to the right through ideological appeals involving demagoguery, scapegoating, and conspiracism.' Let me hear your thoughts in the comments. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Po-pulism#Fascism_and_populism (source)...
Google’s Support For Wikipedia! Donates $2 Million – Is Google
2010-02-18 12:36:00 In a strange act of charity, Google has donated a huge sum of $2 Million to the Wikimedia foundation which currently runs the World’s Biggest Online Encyclopaedia – Wikipedia.org. You must have noticed, we termed this act of charity as strange in the beginning of this story – well we have a reason too. Way back in July 2008, Google launched a product called Knol which was mainly seen as a competitor to Wikipedia by many experts. Although Knol did not gain much fame and user base in comparision to Wikipedia, Google has still kept the service active. According to a WikiMedia press release, The Wikimedia Foundation received a $2 million (USD) grant from the Google Inc. Charitable Giving Fund of Tides Foundation which happens to be first one from Google to Wikipedia. The funds will support core operational costs of the Wikimedia Foundation and other technical infrastructure. According to Google co-founder Sergey Brin – “Wikipedia is one of the greatest ...

The premise is oddly entertaining: celebrities get interviewed to confirm the truth on their Wikipedia page.

The one note that particularly intrigued me was Lu's reconfirmation of the novel he is writing entitled Reflections of a Window Washer.

English Wikipedia Reaches 3 Million Articles
2009-08-18 11:03:00 Wikipedia has announced on its homepage today the creation of the three millionth article on its English version. This milestone was created with the addition of a page about Beate Marie Eriksen, a Norwegian actress and film director. Wikipedia has been the most successful social media experiment in recent times. Started in 2001, the online encyclopedia has very quickly replaced Encyclopedia Brittanica as the most preferred destination for information seekers. What has been so dramatic in the growth of Wikipedia is that the contribution has been solely through volunteers and the foundation run with the help of donations! The website, including all the different languages, today has close to 13 million articles written by over 10 million registered users; not counting the several million other users who contribute as unregistered editors. From an Indian standpoint, Wikipedia has still got a lot of scope to grow considering that the Indian language sections of Wikipedia have had rela...

2009-06-19 17:10:00 In the short history of the web, if any resource on the web has come close to challenging Google’s position as the number one information repository it has to be Wikipedia.

Track Your Wikipedia Pages with Wiki Alarm
2009-05-16 03:00:00 Recently, Irish sociology student Shane Fitzgerald fooled numerous reporters by inventing a fake quote just hours after the death of French composer Maurice Jarre. The quote, originally posted on Jarre's Wikipedia page, wound up in blogs and publications around the world. Fitzgerald says this was done to teach journalists the importance of double checking the facts listed in Wikipedia before publishing them. Maybe some of these writers would have been hip to the hoax if they had used Wiki Alarm.
Sathya Sai Baba Man Joe Moreno?s Diabolizing Photo Alterations of Sai Baba
2009-05-09 00:26:00 The principal internet critic of Sathya Sathya Sai Baba critics (beside Dr G.Venkataraman) is Gerald Joe Moreno of New Mexico, USA. He virtually lives in virtual reality - if reality it is. For the last few years, day after day (and night, of course), he has made countless attacks of various kinds on practically anyone who has raised his and her voice in criticism of the idol of Moreno's life, Sathya Sai Baba. The 'maturity' of these endeavours questions the support given to Moreno by both leading Sathya Sai Baba and rank-and-file personnel, including members of the International Sathya Sai Organization. But one example of Moreno's disparaging 'art' and 'craft' is that against Sanjay Dadlani, whose University authorities have been beset with material that Moreno has sent to vilify and destroy this young man. So as to concentrate on his studies heading towards a Ph.D in neuro-Psychology, Dadlani has, for a considerable time, withdrawn (since early August, 2008, I think) f...

Moreno, moreover, has a certain status as a popular hero for those who also profess but do not carry out the spiritual teachings of Sathya Sai Baba.
