Essay topics:

Communal online encyclopedias represent one of the latest resources to be found on the Internet. They are in many respects like traditional printed encyclopedias collections of articles on various subjects. What is specific to these online encyclopedias, however, is that any Internet user can contribute a new article or make an editorial change in an existing one. As a result, the encyclopedia is authored by the whole community of Internet users. The idea might sound attractive, but the communal online encyclopedias have several important problems that make them much less valuable than traditional, printed encyclopedias. First, contributors to a communal online encyclopedia often lack academic credentials, thereby making their contributions partially informed at best and downright inaccurate in many cases. Traditional encyclopedias are written by trained experts who adhere to standards of academic rigour that nonspecialists cannot really achieve. Second, even if the original entry in the online encyclopedia is correct, the communal nature of these online encyclopedias gives unscrupulous users and vandals or hackers the opportunity to fabricate, delete, and corrupt information in the encyclopedia. Once changes have been made to the original text, an unsuspecting user cannot tell the entry has been tampered with. None of this is possible with a traditional encyclopedia. Third, 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. A child doing research for a school project may discover that a major historical event receives as much attention in an online encyclopedia as, say, a single long-running television program. The traditional encyclopedia provides a considered view of what topics to include or exclude and contains a sense of proportion that online "democratic" communal encyclopedias do not.

The article states that, online encyclopedias are one of the latest resources to be found on the internet, it says that user can contribute a new article or make an editorial change in an existing one. And the encyclopedia is authored by the whole community of internet users. And also mentioned that the online encyclopedias have several problems than the traditional printed encyclopedias. And provide three reasons of support. However, the professor explains that the traditional encyclopedias can never be perfect And can ignore many aspects too, And refutes each of the author’s reason.

First, the reading claims 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. Traditional encyclopedias are written by trained experts who adhere to standards of academic rigor that no specialists cannot really achieve. the professor refutes this point by saying that the in traditional encyclopedias never be accurate and error free but in online it is easy to correct the errors and manage them, but in the traditional encyclopedia the errors can be there for the decades.

Second, the article posits that even if the original information in online encyclopedia is correct the communal nature of these online encyclopedias gives unscrupulous users and vandals or hackers the opportunity to fabricate, delete, And corrupt information in the encyclopedia. the professor opposes this point by explaining that the online encyclopedia and read only format and we can reliable on in the sensitive information on that. for this purpose, they have some special editors who’s job is to remove the malicious information from it.

Third, the reading says 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. the professor oppose this point by explaining that the space is not an issue in online encyclopedia and gives the explanation for the same.

we also learn that both the statement refutes each other’s point
