Wikipedia Cd Iso Download Wikipedia Cd Iso Download wikipedia cd iso download Wikipedia cd iso download. The Wikimedia Foundation and Linterweb announces the release of Wikipedia Version 0.5, a compact disc collection of around 2,000 articles from the English Wikipedia. The project paves the way for many such collections, with larger releases planned in a variety of languages. Articles were chosen based on criteria for quality and importance set by the Wikipedia community. Topics covered include, among others, geography, arts, literature, science, history, and natural sciences. Users can browse articles using a built-in search engine or by surfing navigational pages. Martin A. Walker, a chemistry professor at the State University of New York at Potsdam, played a central role in the production of Wikipedia Version 0.5, and in setting criteria for article selection. “ Although this is only a test release, we really tried to produce something the Wikipedia community could feel proud of. We wanted to cover the major topics, while also including a selection of articles considered to be the very best of Wikipedia. These ‘featured articles’ aim to be well written and comprehensive, and also free from errors, bias, vandalism and marketing ”, states Walker. The community members are welcome to take part in this innovating project, either by helping for the selection process, or by helping at the development of the open-source project Kiwix, which is the software part of the CD. “ We hope that everyone is able to participate at the future development of the Encyclopedia, and be proud of its reach. ”, Pascal Martin emphasizes. Wikimedia France was at the forefront of bringing the CD collection to fruition, and securing the deal with Linterweb, a French technology company. In the future, Wikimedia France also aims to produce a French language CD through Linterweb. The French/English collaboration has proved very successful, and the two groups continue to share ideas and resources. The Wikipedia Version 0.5 CD is compatible with Windows (back to 98), Macintosh (Intel) OS X and Linux x86. It can be purchased at the price of $13.99. Wikipedia cd iso download. Copy disc to ISO file. AnyBurn can copy compact disc to ISO file or other image formats. It supports copying CD, DVD, or Blu-ray disc to ISO file. The ISO file is an exact copy of the source disc. You can copy compact disc to and ISO file, store it on the hard drive, then burn the ISO file to a new disc to create a copy of the original disc, or mount it as virtual drive. Please follow the steps to copy a compact disc to ISO file, 1. Run AnyBurn, then click "Copy disc to image file". 2. Select the source drive containing the disc you want to copy from the source drive list. Enter the destination file path name. You can click "Browse" button to select desired folder and file name. The destination image file type should be set to standard ISO file. Click "Create Now" to start copying disc to ISO file. 3. AnyBurn will now start copying the source disc to ISO file. You can see the detailed progress information during copying. After copying ISO file completes, you should see the message, "Creating image file finished successfully". Wikipedia CD Distributed over BitTorrent. A "Wikipedia CD" has been made available for download on BitTorrent.com. The CD comprises of over 2500 hand-picked educational articles aimed at helping schools enhance their curriculum and children learn. The CD has been compiled by volunteers for “the world’s largest orphan charity”, SOS Children. The articles, all of which are from the English language portal, are on common educational topics such as Geography, Science, Dinosaurs, Plants and Animals, to name a few. Articles on all countries and their capital cities have also been included. Apparently, each of the articles has been “checked for suitability” and “cleaned by hand and script.” The CD is currently at release 1.0. Previous versions contained “disputed” articles relating to religion and politics, but they have subsequently been removed. This CD is clearly aimed at schools and institutions with a slow, or non-existent connection to the Internet. Unlike Encyclo pod ia, the popular open source project that puts all of Wikipedia on your iPod, the Wikipedia CD is aimed at a younger audience who might find it hard to discern the clearly inaccurate or false from the ‘real’ information. It is a great effort , but at the same time one has to remember that the content on the CD is edited, and has therefore not been cross-checked by the innumerable people that frequent, contribute to and refine Wikipedia. SOS Children did not have permission to use the Wikipedia logo, so it is not present on the CD, but they have recently been granted permission and it will appear on the next release in 2007. CD DVD to ISO. CD DVD to ISO program was designed to be a little tool that will help you make an ISO from your CD or DVD. CD DVD to ISO is a very easy to use Windows software solution that can create an ISO image from your CD or DVD disks. There are hundreds of similar applications out there on the market, so CD DVD to ISO needs to have something really special to attract more users. This isn’t quite special, but the simplicity it relies on clearly makes CD DVD to ISO a very easy to use application, grouping all options right in the main window and boasting only a few configuration settings. On the other hand, while everything is designed to be simple, there is no help manual, so beginners may have a hard time with the options displayed under the log panel. Users are thus prompted to choose the device they wish to use as source for the ISO file, the name of the ISO and pick from several options, such as c2scan, fulltoc, clone, noerror and nocorr. While those with a bit more computer experience should have no problems figuring out the purpose of these tools, a help file would definitely help rookies a lot. More information can be accessed however by moving the mouse cursor over each option, but the terms used in each description may still scare away beginners. CD DVD to ISO completes a task in no time and that’s a pretty good thing as compared to other similar apps on the market, while remaining very friendly with hardware resources. The conclusion is rather simple: CD DVD to ISO can be useful, but only if you’re an experienced user who doesn’t need too much information on the available options. Otherwise, there are tons of similar apps doing the same thing with a more intuitive approach. Wikipedia on CD/DVD. Almost all of the content of the Wikimedia projects is published under licenses which allow anybody to download the content and publish it any way they like. This has allowed various projects to republish our content, for example from the German, Polish, Portuguese and English Wikipedias. Contents. Overview. Before any new project is planned for publishing Wikipedia on DVD, flashcard, or any other form of fixed digital medium, it should be clear what the goal of the distribution will be. Should it simply be a means of accessing Wikipedia offline, or should it offer a more feature-rich multimedia encyclopædia, such as the Britannica DVD, or Microsoft's Encarta? Will it incorporate interactive features? Offline releases involve a clear series of steps: Determine the scope of the release, which is often dictated by the space available on the medium used and by the expected use of the CD/DVD. Will the release be a general one, or limited to (say) just articles on birds? Will it include all articles, or only the more important/better quality ones? Will it include text-only, or thumbnail pictures, selected pictures, or complete image/video files? If some selection process is involved, then criteria for selection must be determined, usually based on a combination of topic-importance and quality. Then the process itself needs to be determined - this needs to be scalable (experience has shown that manual selection is very labor-intensive and impracticable beyond 5000 articles) - and the relevant infrastructure put in place. In the English and French Wikipedias, selection has been successfully done using metadata compiled from WikiProjects; on the English Wikipedia, a selection of 31,000 articles was made from a pool of 1.6 million assessed articles. In any case whether the offline version will be an HTML dump, or a more sophisticated application, it must also be decided how it will be compiled. Should it be possible to download a version of the offline Wikipedia at any time, getting an up-to-date version? Or should one be compiled say every week, or every month or year. After this has all been decided, one must decide on a way to package this (digitally) given how much space it will require and whether it should be targeted for CD, cd-rom, etc, and decide on what to bundle with it. Should it come with interfaces for an array of platforms, say Linux, Windows, Mac, or should it simply be a general data-only distribution where a client is required to be downloaded separately? This becomes less applicable if an HTML only approach is taken, but a decision must still be made regarding what file system to use on the distribution media. Lastly, after ALL the work above is done, one can start talking about physical distribution. The most common distribution method is to simply allow the disk image to be downloaded online so that people can create their own media sets, since it is a free publication.

Despite unease over its implications for the character (and quality) of knowledge, Wikipedia has brought us closer than ever to a realization of the centuries-old Author Bio & Research Blog pursuit of a universal encyclopedia. Good Faith Collaboration: The Culture of Wikipedia is a rich ethnographic portrayal of Wikipedia's historical roots, collaborative culture, and much debated legacy.

We do a decent job of it." The YouGov survey revealed however that the traditional Encyclopaedia Britannica is viewed as the most reliable source of information by far, trusted by 83 percent of respondents.

While working with the mentioned Indic Wikimedia communities, we observed a number of issues affecting them and we also noticed that there are many similarities between the issues and difficulties faced by these communities. So, we decided to create this “Indic Wikipedia Policies and Guidelines Handbook”. At first, we created a short handbook discussing a number of topics, such as how to create new policies, or modify the existing ones, using village pump, enforcing policies etc. Then we talked to Indic Wikipedians to know more about the policy and guideline related issues and problems they are facing. We also asked for their feedback on the first draft of this handbook. When we contacted them and requested them to join our survey, we received overwhelming responses from them. We must thank everyone who has taken part in our surveys and we will continue communicating with Indic Wikimedians.

Teresa Cardoso, Filomena Pestana, Universidade Aberta, Laboratório de Educação a Distância e Elearning (LE@D), Portugal Abstract The process of digitization is transversal to the different domains of society, including the digitization of encyclopaedias, namely Britannica Online (surpassing its own centennial print edition). In turn, it was surpassed by Wikipedia, which emerged from the advent of web 2.0. Due to the cyclopean proportion that it reached throughout its 19 years of existence, it fulfils an old dream, i.e. to gather, in one place, all the knowledge of humanity – thus, somehow constituting the new library of Alexandria. It also responds to the demands of the digital world, namely by having followed a path aligned with digital and technological evolution, such as the constitution of a community that integrates both human and non-human agents. As Wikipedia is an essential tool when searching on the internet, our aim is to contribute to the understanding of this open resource. Moreover, we address the question of Wikipedia being a sociotechnical system, where bots, non-human collaborators, intervene, either in repetitive automated editions, or progressively expanding its scope, in a sophistication of actions that are not restricted to the content of the articles, but, instead, expand to socialize with the community of users. Introduction We live in a globalized society, with socio-cultural implications that incorporate the so- called new technologies, more commonly known as ICT – information and communication technologies.
