The Inquirer note that online encyclopaedia,
Wikipedia, has now over a million pages of content.
Formed just under 3 years ago, the site has exploded in content and
usefulness. With just 200,000 pages as of January this year, over the
last 9 months they've seen a five fold increase and a few server pains
to boot. It's unique method of content creation has also been key to
it's success. Users submit data and build up subjects, often with
startling levels of detail. Data can then be edited / updated by other
users as time goes on, keeping content fresh and up to date.
Although the site has enjoyed much success in the technology community
due to it's free / GPL friendly nature, traditional educational
establishments have been urged not to use the site, with some groups
suggesting that it is
"un-authoritative". Indeed, one techie
went on to test exactly
how good Wikipedia users were at weeding out
false information: the results were poor, with
none of the changes being noticed.
Sadly, although Wikipedia list a reference for The Inquirer, the site
doesn't feature yours truly - Neowin. A page placed on the site today
was hours later marked for deletion; better
check it
soon, as it might not be there tomorrow.

Cory Doctorow:
The free/open Wikipedia encyclopedia project just posted its
1,000,000th article.
The Wikimedia Foundation announced today the creation of the one
millionth article in Wikipedia, its project to create a free,
open-content, online encyclopedia (Wikipedia.org
(http://en.wikipedia.org)). Started in January 2001, Wikipedia is
currently both the world's largest encyclopedia and its
fastest-growing, with articles under active development in over 100
languages. Nearly 2,500 new articles are added to Wikipedia each day,
along with ten times that number of updates to existing articles.
