I think that Wikipedia is a good way to share information
albeit it has flaws but I think that it is improving. The videos were very
informative in describing Wikipedia and how we should treat the information
found on the site. I was surprised that it's not that far from Encyclopedia
Britannica though in regards to the errors contained in it. I think Wikipedia
is heading in a good direction with regards to having editors and even medical
student, which will be sources of authority, to edit articles pertaining to
their field.
After going through some Wikipedia articles and the links
from the 'social justice' search, I would like to research the topic of rights.
My focus will include what are rights, the different kind of rights, the nature
of rights, etc and I will try to discuss how the information applies or relates
to inequality and social justice. I'm interested in this topic because I
visited a link from the Wikipedia social justice search, under the 'Notes'
section #47, https://mises.org/library/injustice-social-justice, and I found it
interesting because it discussed that social justice movements are ill based because
many of the young people supporting them don't know what a 'right' is. I often
question what do I really have a right to, so that's why I chose rights,
because I want to learn myself.
Hi Regena, Great, relevant topic - We will work on a better focus during the next two weeks but you are on a good start!
