Wiki Revamp

The popular online encyclopedia Wikipedia is set to make drastic changes to the way their platform is operated. In the coming months we are expected to see:

Moderation of all edits by new members
Moderation of all edits by none recognised users
Moderation of all edits on living people or certain organisations.

These steps appear logical to prevent the misuse of this fantastic online resource. It was only last year when Wiki were forced into adding the 'no-follow' tag to external links, these steps where taken to prevent the high ranking site from turning into a spammers paradise.

The Wiki platform will always be prone to malicious abuse, that said the steps expected to be released should help clean up the online resource and prevent abuse in the future. The team at Business Services UK wish them well.
