If looking for something related to a subject of college or looking for some information, it is likely that the outcome of the search will appear something about Wikipedia. Anyone who wants to can edit Wikipedia and write about computers , on laptops , cell phones or anything that comes to mind. Well, rather, anything that is useful.
All this content is free and available in Wikipedia currently has more than 4 million articles in English only, while other languages counting the total amounts to approximately 15 million items.
Although Wikipedia is very popular, the number of contributors is falling. Most large Wikipedia articles were written between 2006 and 2007, being the middle of 2006 the busiest period and in most articles were written, coming to run until 2000 new items every day. The problem is that when you start to have millions of items, there is not much to write about.
The truth is that the volunteer editors do not add much material as before for the simple fact that there are not many topics to cover, and that's why some people say that Wikipedia is almost "finished" or almost "complete", as they prefer to call it .
This fact has led to the guys behind the free encyclopedia deem start getting textbooks and courses that would then be available on the web, but also have other ideas that could improve the use of Wikipedia.
