A word from the editor [ edit ] Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus [ 1] Katowice ,1980 ) - Short story: I am ageek ,otaku ,Mensa member,Singularitarian ,Magister Artium ineconomics since April'04 and insociology since April'07, one ofTop 50 (or Top 0.0001%) of most activeWikipedians (42nd in March'08 is my best record); as of September'09 I was one of the 59 editors who had over 100,000k edits to English Wikipedia. I registered on Wiki on 10 Apr 2004 (User ID 59,002) but I have been editing since December 2003 as an anon. Oh yes, I am a Pole soread on how to deal with Poles! :>
I love sharing my knowledge and the idea oftelecommuting , so Wiki is a 'home quite close to home' for me, also illustrating the truth in sayingif you find work you like, you will never work again . Working on Wiki gives me this great feeling of doing something good and useful *now* - anybody can access my work anytime they wish, there are no delays in article publications, no restriction on who has enough money to pay for my work (hmmm, I can see a problem with this in the long run though... :>). I have now seen Wikipedia grow for years, and it is amazing. I am sure thatin the near future Wiki will rival Google as the best tool on the web . And, of course,if it is, it should be on Wiki - well, exceptspam and like .
My interests concentrate aroundhistory (includingcounterfactual history ),political sciences ,communication ,technological singularity ,sociology ,economics , and finally, as perhaps a bit more trivial a hobby, all things related to goodscience fiction . Oh, andgames . I am a founding member of thePolishLudology Association , after all :)
On the professional side I am a sociologist ofnew media , having finished myPhD insociology in August'12. (CoI disclaimer: I am working at theHanyang University in Korea). What that means is that I try to understand the impact of changes incommunication technology on our lives. I amframing myself as asociologist of the Internet , with a tad ofsocial movement and organization expertise. On a related note, I would like to do some historical research as well, regardingGolden Freedoms of thePolish–Lithuanian Commonwealth and its impact on development of democracy worldwide. I also want to look at thesocial institution ofhobby shops , as I find the omission of gaming communities from Putnam'sBowling Alone Wikipedia (andwikis in general), as I am becoming more and more fascinated by the often asked question: 'how does this thing work?!' :) I am also pioneeringthe use Wikipedia as a teaching tool .
I have taught dozens of university-level courses with students submitting writing assignments in form of Wikipedia articles, and I've even developed a courseabout Wikipedia. For most of my courses I have developeda series of freely licensedPrezi slides, check them out, copy and reuse! More about my teaching stuff, from tools I've developed to the list of articles my students created or improved, can be foundhere .
Here are some of my published papers about Wikipedia you may find interesting. If you hit a paywal, stop byLibGen .
In Fall 2016 WMF publisheda blog about me based on an interview :)Korean TL )
If for some bizarre reason you need to know more about me, just ask.I don't believe anonymity is good for this project .
