Hi,

all the internet user knows what are the wikipedia, it’s a open source project where anybody can collaborate with articles about anything, the objective of the project it’s to create and maintain a free source of reliable of information.

to maintain the quality of the articles, wikipedia have several rules what you need to respect, to not suffer the delete of your article. my personal experiene it’s very bad, really, i always use wikipedia to search information, but the last time i tried to colaborate creating a article about CODEAR (the contest created by ADVA members). now i try to write a clean article, i upload some pic in wikicommon and for my surprise in less than 24 hours has been erased by a moderator and reason are “promoting”. WTF? this it’s free contest, we dont get anything from this and the only purpose for this it’s to get more accessible the info about this for the users. for that i contacted the moderator who erased my article, askim he the reason about this, i dont get a response….

now, how wikipedia want colaboration of the user if going to erase all the article what dont fit with her elitism criteria?. how a professor, teacher, cientific or any people with valuable knowledge and experience, want to write a article if it’s erased by some teenager what have a bad day?. i’m not telling what wikipedia it’s bad, wikipedia it’s a great project, and i think it’s a great colaboration to the humanity and the open source, but if it continue like this, dont going to have a great future…

wikipedia has been dissapoint me, really…

Shadow.
