Something we take for too much for granted. Everything about Wikipedia, its software MediaWiki, and the Wikimedia foundation behind it, is extraordinary. The whole thing is crowd-sourced and crowd-funded. No advertising, no selling of your data to Russian election fixers. Plus, it is hands-down, the best web editing software there is out there.

So why don’t we use it on the JC?

WE DO.

Go, right now, and donate some money to the Wikimedia Foundation.
