How Wikis Work
[howstuffworks: computerstuff Daily RSS Feed] That is a wide-open invitation to anyone -- any visitor to Wikipedia (including you) can edit any page. If you have something to say about wing warping that you feel should be on the page, or if you have an external link that you believe would be helpful to other readers who are reading about wing warping, or if you're compelled to write something completely unrelated, then you can add whatever you have to say to the page.

Wikipedia

Do Wikis Belong in Law Firms?
[Connie Crosby] The group I presented to at Wiki Tuesday was a real cross-section of people interested in wiki use: consultants, tech developers, at least one lawyer, people who have worked with lawyers, people with general interest in wikis, and even some new to wikis. Despite a snow storm progressing outside, we had at least a dozen people present which is a good turn-out for this event.

More on how to engage with Wikipedia
[Testdiffcount50013's Weblog] One of those is Wikipedia.But here I would simply want to reiterate what I have often said before, that Wikipedia is not a “source”, it is a “resource”. As such, it requires critical engagement in the same way that other resources require critical engagement. The model I work with is one in which students themselves analyse and test resources in the light of their reading of the primary sources (e.g. In defence of Wikipedia, with further discussion under the label Wikipedia).
