Wikipedia and Women

Submitted by Cathy Davidson on Sep 02, 2009, 09:45 AM

The form of a Wikipedia contribution is quite exacting . . . but what counts as "exacting" is culturally determined. This is the beginning not the end of a discussion of gender and knowledge. I'd love to hear what others think about this study of Wikipedia contribution and use as well as about the larger issues.

Underwater Archaeology on the Internet: A Collaborative Effort

There is always a team from various sciences there to help raise up the stories of our past from their watery graves.
