The article focuses on the experiences and challenges that students of the Department of Information Studies and Librarianship at Masaryk University experienced when integrating generative artificial intelligence (AI) into the creation of encyclopedic articles on Wikipedia as part of the course ‘Writing Expert Texts’.
