The State of Wikipedia by JESS3

Created by JESS3: The State of Wikipedia not only explores the rich history and inner-workings of the web-based encyclopedia, but it's also a celebration of its 10th anniversary. With more than 17 million articles in over 270 languages, Wikipedia has undoubtedly become one of the most visited and relied upon sites on the web today.

The fourth video in our the "State of" series, JESS3 is proud to release The State of Wikipedia as our first video of 2011. And, as if it weren't good enough, the video features none other than one of the co-founders himself, Jimmy Wales, as the narrator.

Wikipedia is the most important website ever made. Not in the last 10 years. Ever.

I would really like to ask everyone here who likes and uses Wikipedia to contribute in some way. Get involved. You can start like most people, by making minor edits to articles. Then you can consider joining as a registered member. I also donate to the foundation annually, I always donate up to $40 not more. It's not much but if everyone would donate a small amount that would make sure that not only Wikipedia but also the other projects can go on for at least another 10 years!

@TomusMedia No, these another 50% are unbigoted and some of them are aware of evidence for God.

@TomusMedia What theory? I mentioned something I experienced. I put FACTS directly from a book onto a Wikipedia entry and notated the exact pages. I made no mistake. No theory. No opinion. And, it was eliminated. How would you explain that? Would it bother you?

[TomusMedia]

@tripfunkmonster ahhhhhhhhhh, we have a conspiracy theorist in our midst

[TomusMedia]

@MrPsychedelia101 yeah, that are around another 50% misguided by some form of "god"

Too bad the system is broken.

We need to SAVE wikipedia! It's the only website I use to get information!

I think Wikipedia needs a makeover, I suggest them to use Metro UI like those used in the new Windows 8. I think u could ask the editors ,who r adept in developing,for help(which would be free). It would attract many people to use Wikipedia. I see its homepage as slightly boring but knowledgeable.

JUST PUT ADVERTISEMENTS DAMMIT.

Its hard to see my favourite site like this, don't worry wiki no one will care about a stupid company trying to sell things in the corner of the page. I'll even promise to the click on them.
