Wikipedia to tighten editorial rules
Just three days after declaring in a guest post on Lawrence Lessig’s blog that “anti-elitism” is not a “serious objection” to Wikipedia, co-founder Jimmy Wales tells the German newspaper Sueddeutsche Zeitung that Wikipedia plans to impose stricter editorial rules to prevent vandalism and that some form of “commission” might required to ensure the integrity of the content.
UPDATE: Jimmy Wales later wrote on Lessig’s blog that the Sueddeutsche Zeitung story got it wrong.
