Journal authors must also post to Wikipedia
Times Higher Education UK
In a drive to broaden access to research and to improve the quality of information available on Wikipedia the journal RNA Biology has asked authors whose papers are accepted for publication to add their results to Wikipedia. The website has proved to be controversial because its content is created and edited by the general public. The Wikipedia page containing the research results ? on the family of molecules known as RNA (ribonucleic acid) ? is open to editing by scientists with any additional information as well as by other members of the public. The Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute holds Rfam a database of RNA families that is updated via Wikipedia.

Big-game Bob? More like big-goof Bob. And knowing Jimmy Boy he had no clue about any of these facts. Considering the sad soul can’t figure out how to use a remote control and Jimbo thinks using Wikipedia is some way to pick up on a lady from across the bar my bet is he still thinks Barry Switzer is still at U. klahoma probably doesn’t even belong in this game after losing to Texas.

The Eye of Google

For certain specialized topics a Google Answers page was the best reference available on the web. But as Randall explains Google basically did nothing with the site after launching it and in 2005 Yahoo! Answers substituted community spirit for pay and ate Google Answers’s lunch.
