Creoliste Biblioshare
From Creolista!
Why?
Main reasons I think this software is interesting:
- It is possible to generate clean user-delimited bibliographies with this program in a variety of formats (including BibTex, Endnote, HTML) which means that it can be exported into Zotero, Refworks, etc... In other words, the data is free and transmutable.
- Any user can edit any field in any entry. (à creuser... et les possibilités de défaire les modifs? (états? chronjobs?))
- It is possible to link directly to any reference or group of references
- Wikipedia often fails when references are misrepresented. Focusing attention on sources rather than relegating them to footnotes seems very healthy, insofar as it respects academics' and journalists' work. It also allows five people or fifty to comment on one reference.
- The WIKINDX project is actively maintained. (I'm running v3.82, v5 is already in beta.)
When?
Now!
What?
The program is Wikindx, developed by Mark Grimshaw. I'm working on a guide.
