    • Abstract:
      The article examines the editorial practices of online encyclopedia Wikipedia, which allows any visitor to the website to add content to entries that are then reviewed by volunteer editors. Particular attention is given to how many entries are written from the perspective of Americans and Europeans and how reversing this trend could discourage stereotypes and improve diversity. Information on Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales is also included.
