#6. How important is it to be civil online on the Internet?

Jeong Seo yoon, 정서윤

It is very important to be polite online. With the development of the Internet, as the online community grows, we can share our thoughts and feelings about someone's unilateral posting. The demand for the process of encouraging other people's participation and exchanging ideas through it is the basic desire for online community expansion.

We can see here the universal basic purpose of the online community. That is communication with others. A community is usually a place where people who have a certain purpose, concept, and interest in it naturally come together. There are also rules and manners that suit each community. But basically, we need to be civil to others on the Internet.

To be civil is a way of encouraging people to share their opinions with others. If people usually point to keeping good manners with others as one of the important factors in communicating. This is because we need to recognize each other's right to support when we feel that each other is respected. However, due to the nature of online, too many manners can be erased under anonymity. This is because it can satisfy the right to support society.

Even if we are arguing with someone, we need to be polite to the end.

There are several questions.
What is the most appropriate attitude in a conversation with an anonymous person who is not polite to each other?
In some cases, the default is not to divide the etiquette of a particular community. How should we look at the culture of this community?

Discuss Reagle’s chapters 3-4

Discuss Reagle’s chapters 3-4 I read the Reagle's chapters 3-4. I find two opinion. One thing is how to collaborate people on Wikipedia. Other is how to make open community on Wikipedia. How to collaborate people on Wikipedia. In the case of the English Wikipedia, there is a collaborative culture that asks its participants to assume two postures: a stance of neutral point of view on matters of knowledge, and a stance of good faith toward one’s fellow contributors. I think that people know the mood that must keep the rule on Wikipedia. If Wikipedia's mood is light, people write the light writing. Other is how to make open community on Wikipedia. I remember the discussion that Why the Women is smaller that the men on Wikipedia. I've heard from others the reason that women don't use it much because the community isn't friendly to women. I think that we try to create Wikipedia to use all the people no matter that the sex. I think it's a process ...

Discuss Reagle's Chapter3-4

In  the Reagle  Chapter 3-4, the troll and the ignore rules were impressive.  Troll is the one who destroys teamwork and leads the team to ruin.  Trolls, which are negative characters, help develop Wikipedia. Wikipedia finds the wrong information generated by the troll. And the information is modified by others. In that process, it results in more information production. There is an outlaw, similar to a troll. The lawless ignores all regulations, including copyright and reference. Like Trolls, they help develop Wikipedia. They are free to edit because they are out of regulation. The free edited content is modified by others, including attaching references and deleting content that is caught in copyright issues. Wikipedia develops as it takes care of these types of people.

Discuss Reagle’s chapter 5

Discuss Reagle’s chapter 5 It is hard to understand this chapter. When I used the Wikipedia, I thought I don't need to group communication. Because the communication space is hidden, so I don't find it. I'm hard to find the communication space on Wikipedia. I think that the Wikipedia communication is not good at working in Korea. There are not many advisers on Korea Wikipedia. The Wiktionary definitions for consensus speak of “general agreement,” “without active opposition to the proposed course of action. I found it important for members to reach an agreement on Wikipedia. It's not an easy task, but I think it can produce a good results. So I think that's why Wikipedia exists. It can appear in a chat window, and go and talk to the other person's chat room. Perhaps it ends up as a personal versus personal matter, but I think that's also an agreement. If conversation does not take place, I don't think an agreement is reached either. Wiki...
