week 11 : my recent wikipidia edit - ljhwa(이진화)

Edward Gaming is a professional esports organization based in China. They operate competitive teams in Riot Games titles, specifically League of Legends and VALORANT. In the League of Legends scene, they have a long-standing history and are the only LPL team to have won both the Mid-Season Invitational (MSI) in 2015 and the World Championship in 2021. In the VALORANT division, they also hold the distinction of winning the 2024 VALORANT Champions. 

The documents I edited today are BLG, EDG (English), and EDG (Korean).

Any new, interesting, or unusual items learned

The EDG article provides information on which players were newly recruited and which ones left the team. Although the historical rosters are not neatly organized, the article offers enough detail to understand who has been part of EDG over time. It also summarizes most of the key events that happened to the team each year, making it a document that aligns well with the founding purpose of Wikipedia. Furthermore, it includes written summaries not only of wins and losses and overall performance, but also of the team’s opponents in most matches and the point margins by which the results were determined. Although EDG shares the same identity as a sports organization and competes in the top league of the same country, it is interesting to see that its article differs significantly in structure and detail.

Identify at least one question, concern, or discussion 

Given that both are sports teams, which of the two writing approaches would be more user-friendly for obtaining information?

    Preferences for the narrative style of an article may vary from person to person, but I believe EDG way is more suitable for obtaining information than BLG way. While the performance of a sports team is certainly important, it does not explain everything. Even without Wikipedia, we can easily access such information through news and social media. In contrast, the history of a sports team is not easy to know unless you are a fan. Moreover, such information is scattered across various places on the internet, making it difficult to access without Wikipedia. Although the content or format of a Wikipedia article is not strictly defined, there are still better examples.

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...
