Areas of strength
Слабые места
  • Blocked in the People's Republic of China (see Wikimedia projects blocks)
  • Due to the cultural difference and the difference in translation among PRC, HK, TW and other communities, there are often disputes and edit conflicts, especially for political articles. Thus, the time consuming process of dispute resolution and consensus building is required.
  • Absence of software robots for vandal fighting.
  • Most users good at translation do not have sufficient time, and those who have sufficient time are weak in translation. As a result, many articles are left partially translated.
Who is the competitor?
  • Online
    Baidu Baike (百度百科)
    Britannica Online (大英在線)
    Wordpedia (智慧藏百科全書網)
    Yahoo! Answers (雅虎知识堂 / Yahoo!奇摩知識 / 雅虎知識+)

Features

What language features are challenging?
  • At least two main writing systems exist - traditional and simplified Chinese. Until January 2005, zh.wp was a mix of articles of both types depending on the origin of the article creator/editors. User:Mountain helped create a generic automated mapping system which has helped other languages as well, such as Serbian. See the article: Automatic conversion between simplified and traditional Chinese
