 This article explores a range of issues that exist in Wikipedia and the characteristics, challenges, and values of the open content community. It first points out the imbalance that exists in Wikipedia to drive out good users and problem users, and introduces two "laws" : the third law of deathbed oiling and Bachman's Law to emphasize the influence of trolls on editors and the advantages and disadvantages of openness. Secondly, the article explores the meaning of openness and its concrete embodiment in Wikipedia, and presents the challenges faced by the community, such as bureaucratization and office actions. The article then highlights the critical role of openness in the success of the community and discusses the importance of transparency, integrity and non-discrimination. In addition, the article points out the balance between openness and restrictions, especially on a platform like Wikipedia where some restrictions need to be implemented to maintain content quality. The article then discusses the challenges faced by Wikipedia in the face of external pressures and internal developments, including circumventing abuses of community policies and office mechanisms. Next, the article explores the enclave phenomenon, using WikiChix as an example to raise concerns about the possible impact of community marginalization and extremism. Finally, the article emphasizes the importance of ongoing discussion of values and balance in the open content community, and argues that Wikipedia performs well in this regard, but also points out issues that need continued attention.

One notable example of this is the discussion within the Wikipedia community, in particular the proposal to create a dedicated space for women to discuss - WikiChix. This proposal challenges the principles of openness and equality in part because it excludes men rather than simply being supportive and inclusive.

This example reveals how power works in a community. Although openness is a core value of the community, some members still feel marginalized in their voice in public space or feel uncomfortable due to certain identity characteristics. The WikiChix proposal came about because some female community members felt uncomfortable in public discussions on Wikipedia, particularly about gender bias. This has led to a reaction to create an enclosed space in which women can express themselves more freely without fear of discrimination or discomfort in a male-dominated environment.

However, the proposal has also sparked a series of debates, with some arguing that it violates the principle of openness, while others see it as an attempt to address prejudice and inequality in the wider community. This case reflects the power struggle and clash of values between community members, and how to deal with the needs and concerns of specific groups while pursuing openness and inclusiveness.

ltimately, although WikiChix's proposal was eventually moved to non-Wikimedia hosting, it still prompted deep thinking about power and values within the community. This example highlights the challenge of balancing freedom and equality in open content communities, and how to maintain openness while ensuring that the voices of particular groups are heard and respected.

One issue worth discussing is how to balance the principles of free speech and non-discrimination in Wikipedia. Wikipedia touts the principle of freedom that "anyone can edit," but that raises a host of questions. For example, how do you deal with malicious editors or users with extreme views? How do you ensure that issues of fairness and discrimination are addressed while maintaining respect for freedom of expression? In the case of Wikipedia, creating dedicated discussion Spaces may seem like a solution for some groups, but it also raises challenges to openness, especially when such Spaces are exclusive.
