Talk:Wikimedia Hong Kong/Liberal Studies Toolkit

helping us on paperwork

"Liberal Studies Toolkit" is a platform for Wikimedia Hong Kong to present the ideas of using Wikipedia with a better mind for local students. So we hope that would be more simple and well-present in both Chinese and English.

So, if there are anyone willing to help us in this task, we are please to invite you to help us to summarize the following ideas in point form. And we do need a translated verison in Chinese.

We are only collectors

Artcles in Wikipedia are not signed, and contributors are unpaid volunteers. Whether you claim to be a tenured professor, use your real name, or prefer to remain pseudonymous, your edits and arguments will be judged on their merits. We require that verifiable sources be cited for all significant claims, and we do not permit editors to publicize their personal conclusions when writing articles. All editors must follow a neutral point of view; they must only collect relevant opinions which can be traced to reliable sources.

Knowledge Gateway

As we require that verifiable sources be cited for all significant claims, and we cannot prevent editors to publicize their personal conclusions when writing articles, so we strongly recommend you to click in to the sources, to have a look yourself to see whether there is any misunderstanding and misinterpretation occurred. We are only the knowledge gateway, a collection of knowledge based on other source, and Wikipedia should not be the final destination of your quest for knowledge.

We do not expect you to trust us

It is in the nature of an ever-changing work like Wikipedia that, while some articles are of the highest quality of scholarship, others are admittedly complete rubbish. We are fully aware of this. We work hard to keep the ratio of the greatest to the worst as high as possible, of course, and to find helpful ways to tell you in what state an article currently is. Even at its best, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, with all the limitations that entails. It is not a primary source. We ask you not to criticize Wikipedia indiscriminately for its content model but to use it with an informed understanding of what it is and what it isn't. Also, because some articles may contain errors, please do not use Wikipedia to make critical decisions.

Change it if you find it wrong

Although we have groups of volunteer to maintain the quality and fix the error and mistake of the article, but it is impossible for us to cover it all. So when you see something factually wrong, or misinterpretation of the source material, please don’t hesitate to change it!

And thank you for help in this "Liberal Studies Toolkit". At last, if there is a new idea, please share it and let us know.
