Reagle’s Chapter 5

In Wikipedia, a consensus is reached.A consensus is general agreement among a group of people.Consensus plays an important role in Wikipedia. It is important to harmonize various opinions on information. Most consensus are made through voting, but Wikipedia uses communication to interact. All Wikipedia articles can be modified by everyone. Because there are various opinions, consensus is important.
Communicate through Wikipedia articles and match the information in the articles. These editing methods are easy to capture a variety of perspectives and are good to hold a lot of information. "two heads are better than one."

[10] What would make writing on Wikipedia easier for me?

<What would make writing on Wikipedia easier for me?>   Editing Wikipedia was always difficult for me. But not with the UI or language something, the difference of the culture and people was kinda confusing. So as I found how collaborative place Wikipedia is with Reagle's chapter 3-4, I understand this with my brain, but still sometimes don't get it very well.    For example, I had edited a brand's core value, and then someone in Wikipedia just reverted it and the reason was 'it's not important.'. WOW. As I am majoring in advertising and public relations, I think a brand's core value is a thing that makes the brand alive. But, I understand. Some would not think it as I think.    And another example, I had edited an idol members reward for brand power and also cited an credible news link, but someone reverted it and the reason was 'it is not a credible source. please don't use it.' I thought Korean Brand Power investigation was a po...

My edits on Wekipedia for this week

My edits on Wekipedia for this week This week, I edited Wikipedia about Kim Sang-ok. The reason why I first posted an article about Kim Sang Ok is because in class, my professor gave me the task of uploading information about a person who is not yet listed on the English Wikipedia. So I added an article about Kim Sang-ok, a Korean independence activist, to Wikipedia. Later, to add more information about Kim Sang-ok, I reviewed records related to Kim Sang-ok this week and added hiss life to Wikipedia. Posting information about Kim Sang-ok meant a lot to me. This is because Kim Sang-ok is one of the proud figures who tried to resist and fight against it at the time when Korea was ruled by Japan. Therefore, posting information about Kim Sang-ok on the English Wikipedia will be an opportunity for people of various nationalities as well as Koreans to have access to him. I would like to post information about various Korean characters while carrying out my future Wikipedia editing assi...

Discuss Reagle’s chapter 5

Consensus is a very important issue in Wikipedia. Consensus is an important keyword in defining a problem because we live in contact with so many people and their opinions vary. Consensus can only be made between sensible editors who strive to maintain good faith and work together to more accurately and appropriately express different views on the subject. A small number of editors can reach an consensus decision among themselves. However, when the document draws the attention of others, someone who disagrees can come out. The first editors should not prevent further changes because they have already made a decision. No one, as well as a few editors, can unilaterally declare that a community agreement has been changed or confirmed. An editor who believes there is a valid reason for the consensus decision to be reversed can discuss in the discussion column to find out what other editors think is important, and compare and review various perspectives and reasons. What ...
