Happy 23rd anniversary to @wikipedia and happy #WikipediaDay to the rest of the #fediverse!

Our #browser has #Wikipedia as a default, both as a Web Panel and a search engine (which means you can perform searches in Wikipedia right from the Address Field, by typing W followed by a space and the search term!)

How do you use it the most? 😃

On this day in 2001 Wikipedia was made! The Internet would be a very different place without this encyclopaedia, and it's free for everyone, forever. What's your favourite article?

#WikipediaDay in NYC has started with @fuzheado explaining how the Statue of Liberty was also crowdsourced (the stained glass just so happens to be in the other room)

Julia Angwin describes journalism as having a trust crisis and that Wikipedia, by using citations/references, has built trust with its audience.
