 Wikipedia's taxonomy guidelines are intended to provide guidance on how to use Wikipedia's taxonomy system correctly. The central goal is to provide navigation links through the taxonomy hierarchy, allowing readers to quickly find pages with the same basic characteristics. The following are the main contents and key points of the guidelines:

Naming conventions:

Subject category names should be singular, consistent with Wikipedia article names; collection category names should be plural.

Avoid names that are too long or too short, and try to choose concise and clear names.

Do not include category structure in the name, and category names should stand alone.

Creating category pages:

Before creating a new category, make sure that no similar categories exist and choose an appropriate category name.

After creating a category, it should be placed in an appropriate parent category.

Category pages should include a description indicating which pages should be included and their subcategories.

Category pages:

Every Wikipedia page should belong to at least one category, unless it is a talk page, redirect page, or user page.

Articles should be classified into the most specific category, rather than being repeated in a parent category.

Categories must be verifiable and maintain a neutral point of view.

Proprietary categories and user page classification:

Proprietary categories (e.g. categories named after people) should only be created when there are enough relevant articles.

User pages and draft pages should avoid being classified into content categories, and should use appropriate user categories or project categories instead.

File and template classification:

Files should be classified into file categories, not content categories.

Templates should not be classified into content categories, but should be classified into template categories to make them easier to find.


Interesting point

Distinguishing between singular and plural names of classifications:


Subject classifications are named singular (such as "Law"), and collection classifications are named plural (such as "Writers"). This rule helps to clarify the nature of classifications, but it may cause ambiguity and misunderstanding in practical applications, which is worth further discussion.


Discussion point

Special treatment of template classification:


Templates should be classified into template categories, not content categories. This rule helps maintain clarity of content categories, but in some cases, the close association of templates with content may require special consideration.

Introduction to the blog

 This blog is a digital forum where students from Collective Intelligence in Practice: Understanding Wikipedia at the Hanyang University in Korea (2024) will discuss their weekly readings and activities. Each week you are expected to post a blog post on our blog and make a comment on another student's post. You can do so on one of the following three topics: a) You can blog about the readings for the next week. As you are expected to do the assigned readings FOR the lectures they are assigned to, you are expected to post your blog and comments BEFORE that lecture. An ideal commentary should be about half a page in length (~200 words), divided into three clearly labeled sections in which you: 1) summarize in your own words of materials you read; 2) mention any new, interesting, or unusual items learned; 3) identify at least one question, concern, or discussion angle that is either problematic in some respect or could have been elaborated more. This question is likely to be...

W10.2 May 10 (Fri)—CHENG SHIYI

1.Summary   Remix culture is a culture that allows and encourages the creation of derivative works through the editing of existing material, challenges exclusive copyright restrictions, promotes the idea of remixing, and facilitates the free flow of creativity. In Remix, Lessig describes the shift from a read-only culture to a read/write culture, where the advent of digital technology has redefined the way culture is created and distributed in ways that facilitate the interactive relationship between producers and consumers and democratize the production of ideas and the distribution of content. The history of remix culture dates back to the 19th century, e.g.: according to American media scholar Henry Jenkins, but the balance between creation and consumption shifted with the advancement of analog recording and reproduction technologies.The analog era of the early 20th century, with its specialized creative equipment and cheap consumer devices, led to the strengthening of proprieta...

W1.1 Intro class: intro to class, blog, wiki and other assignments——CHENG SHIYI

1. Summary  I have taken classes from you, the professor, before and have always been interested in Wikipedia, so I chose to take your class this semester regardless. I understand from your introduction to all the courses in the lecture that this semester's Collective Intelligence in Practice course is centered around Wikipedia, which I understand is an encyclopedia that anyone can edit, and that Wikipedia brings together knowledge from around the world. One of the quotes in your course syllabus is that Technocrati's chief technologist says that soon "Wiki-knowledge will be a required job skill." Wikipedia, a non-profit encyclopedic website, is ranked among the top 5 most popular websites in the world, all thanks to a little bit of contribution from volunteers in the world. I see from this that the Collective Intelligence in Practice program understands Collective Intelligence on the Internet through Wikipedia from a sociological perspective. There are many ways to s...
