Wikipedia Imposes New Curbs (约束) on Editing Article Wikipedia, the famous online encyclopedia, is looking to impose more discipline with new restrictions on the editing of articles.
The latest changes come as Wikipedia tries to balance a.need for credibility and a desire for openness. While anyone can still edit entries, the site is testing pages that won't register changes until they are approved by an experienced Wikipedia editor. If the site's users respond well to the test run, the new restrictions will apply to all entries for living people in the next few weeks.
The idea is to block the kind of vandalism (故意破坏)that has damaged some pages. In one of the most recent embarrassments, US Democratic Senators Robert Byrd was prematurely declared dead by the editors. Still, Wikipedia risks discouraging legitimate editing if restrictions on changes or additions become too burdensome, keeping articles from getting better or keeping up with events.That may be especially true on more obscure pages with fewer active volunteers to approve edits timely.
Aware of the risks, Wikipedia has set the criteria for "experienced editor" status relatively low.Users who are registered for a few days can give changes, said Jay Walsh, a spokesman for the nonprofit Wikimedia Foundation, which runs the site.
A more uniform system for filtering changes on Wikipedia represents a step back from the site's original philosophy, which called for creating the collective knowledge of volunteer editors without any major restrictions.
Some observers believe Wikipedia must continue tightening editing policies if it wants to gain credibility. "I'm just waiting for the other shoe to drop," said Erie Goldman, director of the High Tech Law Institute at the Santa Clara University School of Law. "My hope is that Wikipedia still exists and is still considered a useful site," Goldman said. "But it will be at that point a very tightly controlled site. It won't have that veneer (外表) of a site that anyone can contribute to. They haven't closed the drawbridge (吊桥) . People can still get in. But it keeps going up and up and up."
Separately, the Omidyar Network, a philanthropic (博爱的,慈善的) investment group started by eBay founder Pierre Omidyar, said on Tuesday it is committing $2 million over two years to the Wikimedia Foundation. Omidyar Network's grant will support Wikimedia's goals of bringing free educational content to people around the world and supporting more people to help create that content.

C.He was wrongly declared dead by Wikipedia.
D.He used to edits entries in Wikipedia.

细节题。题干:下列有关Robert Byrd的说法哪项是虚假的?利用Robert Byrd可以定位到第三段第二句,意为“最近的尴尬事件之一就是美国民主党的参议员Robe~Byr 在维基百科中的词条被人篡改,错误地宣布他已经死亡”。由此可知,选项C“他错误地被Wikipedia宣布已经死亡”为正确答案。
