Wikipedia has become the world’s largest reference work工具書.
It is setting a blistering極快的 pace速度, （移動的）步調 with more than 1000 new English-language articles being added each day.
Its success has attracted harsh令人不快的；嚴酷 criticism批評 from predictable可預言的；可預計 quarters.
In an article published recently on Tech Central Station website, Robert McHenry, former editor-in-chief首要、負責人 of Encyclopaedia Britannica大英百科全書, disdainfully輕視 said that using Wikipedia was like visiting a public restroom.
McHenry’s vain不成功的, 徒勞 attempt to turn up the heat is ironic because it is the old-fangled新流行的（新奇的）encyclopedia百科全書 publishers who are on the hot seat.
Wikipedia will put many of them in deep trouble within the next few years. 
    Internet users have been voting with their clicks. Traffic to Wikipedia’s 72 servers on any given day exceeds超過，超出 80 million hits.
Wikipedia articles are cited舉例，引證 increasingly by mainstream（思維、思想或信念等）主流 newspapers and magazines.
Encyclopedia百科全書 publishers lambaste猛烈抨擊；狠狠批評 Wikipedia’s reliability, but their outrage憤慨，義憤 has blinded them to a sea change in their core重要部分, 核心，關鍵 market.
The way people research and learn in the Internet age is vastly非常 different than it was only a decade ago, and if they fail to adapt, they will suffer. 
    How did Wikipedia get started? Jimmy Wales, Wikipedia’s co-founder and leader, began with a simple yet counterintuitive反直覺的；與預期相反 idea: create an open encyclopedia百科全書 that anyone can contribute to. (The name Wikipedia comes from the “wiki” sort of collaborative合作的；協作 software that powers the website.)
The project adopted a few canny聰明 rules of order: whenever someone edits an article, a new version of the article is created and saved.
This is important because Wikipedia is an open-content滿足、內容 project.
Such projects are fuelled by the prestige威信，聲望 and social standing derived導出,派生 by the contributors from the work that they do.
Your contribution to an article, no matter how small, is kept for posterity後裔，子孫 and clearly identified as such. 
    The continual creation of new versions also discourages antisocial反社會的；對社會有害 behavior—vandalized故意破壞 articles can be easily reverted回復.
Each article has a separate page where authors can discuss their changes and air their differences.
To reduce bias偏愛, 偏見；偏心, Wikipedia’s policy is to present a neutral point of view（思考的）角度，著眼點 that fairly一定地, 相當地 represents替…行動, 作為代表 all sides.
