    Ximena Gallardo commented on the post, Wikipedia Assignment Provocation

    Wendy Tronrud commented on the post, Friedman Op-Ed

    Thanks for sharing this site; I have never seen this before. I remember Friedman’s trumped up columns in favor of the invasion of Iraq during the Bush administration. His lack of criticality astounds.

    Steve Brier commented on the post, Wikipedia and the "Content Gap"

    Great final point, Wendy, about the need for “neutral” writing in Wikipedia. It’s one of the things that has always posed problems for me with writing on Wp (which I suspect you might have imagined, given my […]

    Eileen Clancy commented on the post, Rethinking Wikipedia

    Thinking about using Wikipedia as a jumping off point for research makes me want to mention the way that I use it. Because the articles vary widely in quality, the main content of the page may not have even the […]

    “I see the presence of many divides-which are better labeled as perspectives- as a sign that there are many stakeholders in the digital humanities, which is a good thing. We’re all in this together even when we’ […]
