Wikipedia.org went online January 15 in 2001.
The idea was to create an encyclopedia that
everyone could contribute to.
The open format led to many people sharing knowledge.
However the attention also attracted misinformation
and abuse. Which led to a more tighter policy on
contributions enforced by a dedicated team that keeps
our favorite encyclopedia a good source to find information
on an ever expanding range of subjects.
