"What is this life if, full of care
We have no time to stand & stare"

MPOV (My Point of View) of Wikipedia

When I came here first, I was intrigued. What on Earth motivates thousands of loyal contributors adding quality articles to this exceptional encyclopedia, in lieu of no apparent remuneration? A day as member of Wikipedia, I figured it out. Behind this mammoth encyclopedia, there lay a large community who cares for its members as family. I realised money is not the only remuneration that matters, peer review & peer appreciation of one's work can keep that person working from now to eternity. A word of appreciation, or even letting the person know his hard work has been noticed goes a long way to keep him editing. Wikipedia's genius lay in its simplicity of format. Pre-Wikipedia even an insinuation that a free-to-edit encylopedia should exist would have been scoffed at. Even Jimbo Wales admitted he expected a lot more vandalism & a lot less contributions. But peer-review is such a strong tool, that not only will the person contribute but also police himself (& others). An edit is all that's required to get hooked. So you see a redlink user, a guy with 5 edits to his name or even an IP address, give him a "good work mate". You might have created tomorrow's admin!

Cheers
