5.0 out of 5 stars
This is a great book because of its small size., July 17, 2008
This review is from: Wikipedia Reader's Guide: The Missing Manual (Paperback)
I already had the "big book" on wikipedia.org, "Wikipedia: The Missing Manual", but I've found that some people won't collaborate on wikis when you have such a large book.
This new book "Wikipedia: Reader's Guide" is much smaller than I expected, but I'm very happy with it.
Despite the title of this book that implies that it's for readers, the pamphlet has two main sections: 1) for readers and 2) section II for elementary editing.
This book also covers some of the wikipedia sister projects such as wikiversity.org and wikibooks.org.
So, now our people know about the free, online wiki encyclopedia, wikipedia.org, but we're going to also benefit from the free textbooks at: wikibooks.org and the free lesson plans and lessons from wikiversity.org
About the MediaWiki Foundation: It just keeps getting better and better.
