Views on Wikipedia
This user views Wikimedia as a repository of human
knowledge. This includes
situated knowledge like pop culture references and how-to guides. When
artificial intelligence gets the point where a computer can become
sentient, he expects that the Wikipedia database will be loaded into its
memory banks.
Wikipedia is
not a paper encyclopedia. That means that there is no need to trim pages to make the overall collection fit within a certain number of volumes or fit into a predetermined shelf space. His views on editing are
inclusionist and
eventualist.
While he enjoys editing Wikipedia he has become frustrated by the amount of time an energy spent during
Articles for deletion discussions. He believes that the guidelines for
notability should be loosened in order to encourage new users to submit more articles. Articles that borderline notability should be given a reasonable length of time for improvement before being considered for deletion.
