Wikipedia has been around for the last decade, giving away knowledge to all those who could access the World wide web, enlightening our minds, taking darkness away, feeding our curiosity, unfolding the mysteries of this universe, and if there is another universes wikipedia would have written about it too, All that without a dime….
I still Remember the Day that I was introduced to my dear friend “Wikipedia”, I was in high school and that day I kept surfing through it, it puzzled me, it was a mind boggling experience.
It was love from first sight, but today I realized that Wikipedia is no longer a website on the internet it is part of my daily routine, it is a guru that we seek wisdom from, it is a fountain that irrigates our minds with easy accessible knowledge.
I am sure that wikipedia was started on good intentions, for that it flourished until we can see where it have reached today, 15 million articles, another proof is people are helping it grow by the second, one may argue that wikipedia is a flawed research tool, they are right but so be it because wikipedia helped us exchange knowledge, from north – south east-west, once we insert wikipedia address and click enter, we step into a whole different world, a room that all humans sit down and talk, Wikipedia is a new BABEL…
I urge my fellow Wikifans to protest by the Blog and the Keyboard to save the soverignty of our shared Loved “Wikipedia”
