 这周，我编辑更新了我的维基百科用户页面。我以前上过维基百科的课程，但从来没有尝试过编辑我的用户页面。教授鼓励我们改进我们的用户页面，使其更具视觉吸引力。目标是改进我的个人信息，使我的用户页面更符合维基百科的指导方针。我添加了关于我的兴趣的详细信息，使其更清晰。我也了解了维基百科的用户页面规则。不过，通过这个过程，我逐渐熟悉了维基百科的页面设计标准和编辑规则，并学会了如何添加个人介绍、爱好和其他相关信息。整个过程真的很有趣。



It's really fun to discover what you can discover when editing a Wikipedia user page! Wikipedia is more than just a knowledge base, it's also a vibrant and interactive community. Many editors add personalized elements to their pages, such as hobbies, editing goals, and even humorous self-introductions. These pages reflect the editor's personality and their passion for Wikipedia. By viewing the edit history, you can understand an editor's areas of interest and editing style. This transparency helps build trust and a sense of community. User pages have an educational function, and some editors share editing tips and resources on their user pages. These pages not only help new editors get started quickly, but also promote the sharing and dissemination of knowledge.

Introduction to the blog

This blog is a digital forum where students from Collective Intelligence in Practice: Understanding Wikipedia at the Hanyang University in Korea (2025) will discuss their weekly readings and activities. Each week you are expected to post a blog post on our blog and make a comment on another student's post. You can do so on one of the following three topics: a) You can blog about the readings for the next week. As you are expected to do the assigned readings FOR the lectures they are assigned to, you are expected to post your blog and comments BEFORE that lecture. An ideal commentary should be about half a page in length (~200 words), divided into three clearly labeled sections in which you: 1) summarize in your own words of materials you read; 2) mention any new, interesting, or unusual items learned; 3) identify at least one question, concern, or discussion angle that is either problematic in some respect or could have been elaborated more. This question is likely to be incor...

Week 1. My Recent Wikipedia Edits - Jeong seolah (정설아)

I made several edits to the Wikipedia page for 'Daegu'.  Daegu, located in the southeastern part of South Korea, is the third-largest urban area in the country, following Seoul and Busan. With a population exceeding 2.3 million, it is the fourth-largest metropolitan city in South Korea and the second-largest in the Yeongnam region after Busan. Often referred to together with the surrounding North Gyeongsang Province as Daegu-Gyeongbuk, this region is home to over 5 million residents. Known for its rich history and vibrant economy, Daegu stands as a key player in South Korea's cultural and industrial landscape. Below is a summary of the changes I contributed. 1) Summarize and link Sights Section:  - Improved clarity by changing “mountains keep many traditional temples” to “the mountains keep many traditional temples.” Mosque Controversy Section:  - Simplified a sentence by removing “and of the authorities.” Festivals Section:  - Made phrasing smoother by changing “tho...

Week4 - Review about the readings for the next week. - Jo HyeonSeong (조현성)

 1. Summarize in my own words of materials. The book is primarily about the openness of Wikipedia. Openness means that anyone can participate in the creation and editing of articles without any qualifications. Openness can be a double-edged sword. While it means that you can edit without having expert knowledge of a topic, it also means that you can participate even if you have expert knowledge. For experts, articles written by non-experts can come across as inaccurate knowledge, which can anger experts. This anger can also be a catalyst for Wikipedia to continue to improve. However, articles edited only by non-experts can cause misunderstandings and convey incorrect information, so openness can be considered a double-edged sword. In fact, it sometimes causes some conflict, such as Wales' negative stance. Openness also means freedom from copyright, which means anyone can take it and use it anywhere. That is why the knowledge of non-experts can have greater impact. That is why appro...
