Folks,
The New York Times has an article on Wikipedia called " Growing Wikipedia Revises Its 'Anyone Can Edit' Policy
This is remarkably poor journalism. It shows that the media are clutching at straws to write about us. I hope the recently created Communications Committee is building personal connections to some of the journalists involved, and will occasionally feed them interesting "exclusive" stories in addition to regular press releases. We can't prevent the press from screwing up, but perhaps at least we can give them a better idea about things which are actually happening, e.g:
- ongoing reorganization of Wikimedia, heated debates about the
non-profit's future
- 1,000 featured articles, ongoing experiments towards Wikipedia
0.5/1.0
- Wikimedia Commons becoming a gigantic archive of functional free
content (643,000 files, ~250 GB) etc.
