The reading claims that the communal online encyclopedias have several important problems that make them much less valuable than traditional, printed encyclopedias. However, the professor states that the communal online encyclopedias are never perfect, but the critism in the reading ignored the importance of them. She refutes each of the author's problems.

First, the article avers that contributors to a communal online encyclopedia often lack academic credentials, thereby making their contributions partially informed at best and downright inaccurate in many cases. On the other hand, the speaker opposes this point by saying that the traditional encyclopedias are not perfect and if we look to the comprehensive of them, we will find errors. In fact, she mentions that it is easy to correct the online encyclopedia but the printed one, the errors will remain for decades.

Second, the passage posits that the communal nature of these online encyclopedias gives unscrupulous users and hackers the opportunity to fabricate, delete, and corrupt information in the encyclopedia. In contrast, the lecturer counters this point by stating that there are strategies to protect them and nobody will be able to delete of fabricate them. Actually, she argues that there is a format that no one can make change and it is reliable. In addition, a special editor who looks to the changes and he could remove the change.

Third, the article asserts that the communal encyclopedias focus too frequently, and in too great a depth, on trivial and popular topics, which creates a false impression of what is important and what is not. Conversely, the professor casts doubt on this point by explaining that the problem in the traditional encyclopedias are they have limitation in the space of what is important or not. She argues that there is a judgement team that make decision about that, and the space is not an issue. besides, there is a great variety in online encyclopedias that reflect the diversity and this offers a strong advantage of using online encyclopedias.
