Truth Lives in the Open: Lessons from Wikipedia
Victoria Coleman, CTO of Wikimedia Foundation, spoke at the Internet Summit about the organization's mission and initiatives. The foundation supports 12 projects, including Wikipedia, with a focus on making information broadly available not-for-profit. They aim to reach people in hard-to-reach areas through research and communication efforts. While they don't deal in news, they ensure the reliability of their content by maintaining community principles and encouraging openness. The foundation is currently working on scaling its operations and making knowledge accessible globally.
