Finally, a Lib. 2.0 exercise that didn't give me a headache!
I do confess to the guilty pleasure of having used Wikipedia on a few occasions for quick information. I have not run into any blatant misinformation that I know of, and if it is something "important", I will look for verification elsewhere.
I guess you can say that the fact that it is "democratic" is both appealing and appalling.
I do agree with Big Ooey, the various wiki templates would be good ones for NFL to use in reader advisory ways.
I also was amused to see that "Library Success: a best practices wiki" now has this beginning statement: "Because of vandalism problems, e-mail confirmation is now required. Please enter your e-mail address when you create an account and you will be sent a link to confirm your address (after which you will be able to edit the wiki). For those who already have an account, click on user preferences (while logged in) and under "e-mail" click on the Confirm your e-mail address link. Sorry for the inconvenience."
Are the LIBRARIANS misbehaving?
