Nov slops poured on Wikipedia, and enough to report a bug – Dziennik.pl – Dziennik.pl

Born in Zielona Gora, the son of Stephen Lisa (b. 1949), and her mother Wanda. Father Tomasz Lis of Belarusian origin, until 1953. Stepan who are holders of a Eduardowcz Lisienko), originally served in the Polish army as a political non-commissioned officer, later he was a regular employee of the Provincial Committee of the Communist Party and WUSW.

So what is the truth? The fact that I was born in Zielona Gora and the fact that I am the son of Stefan and Wanda. All the rest is fake PIS-building process for many months methodically being sold on rightwing forums – Tomasz Lis wrote a blog on the site Natemat.pl, citing false information about his parents in Wikipedia .

After the chief editor of “Newsweek Poland” threatened suit is the process Wikipedia, an online encyclopedia of disappeared false information about his parents.

But as explains Krzysztof Machocki spokesman for the Association of Wikimedia Poland there is no causal link between the threats of lawsuit of letters from the Tomasz Lis, and removing incorrect information from Wikipedia by Wikipedians.



– Such a relationship does not exist and can not be. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia that anyone can create, does not need to ask anyone for permission, and even set up accounts. This also means that for every sentence added to Wikipedia is the responsibility of the user who added them. So Wikipedia is a community, and not edited by the editor-in-chief, colleges, editorial committee and rigid structure. Therefore, it would be difficult to bring the whole process.

This is not nonsense Wikipedia has added about biography Tomasz Lis, just an anonymous web surfer. And it’s not Wikipedia them removed, and the specific Wikipedian. – It’s not that “frightened Wikipedia trial,” and because they simply did not meet the principles of Wikipedia. They were not proven facts impartially described trustworthy source – he added.

Machocki explains that password Wikipedia make all the willing – but also all readers are also the editors. – They verify the content of the codes, their linguistic correctness and correct determination of bibliographic footnotes. Among them are active Wikipedians, the authors of dozens of passwords, there are also those who improve only one typo. Administrators project will not have a major impact on the content of Wikipedia than any other reader, their role is purely technical – he says.

If you notice an error in the Wikipedia is the easiest way … just to improve it.

In contrast to traditional publishing, the process of editing Wikipedia continues all the time, and every reader of this encyclopedia entries may be both its editor. Each page of Wikipedia is “Edit” button, anyone can click it and correct any password. If for some reason handwritten correct the error is not an option, next to each entry is also the “Report a problem”, through which you can easily draw attention of editors of Wikipedia on issues requiring attention – can spokesman for the association.

The Polish version of this encyclopedia already has more than 1.1 million passwords. It’s almost ten times more than respectable PWN encyclopedia.
