Craig Newmark donates $500k to reduce harassment on Wikipedia
I started editing Wikipedia in 2003. It was fun. Over the years it became less fun, I gave up on participating and quite a few articles I had started ended up being deleted.<p>I also often found myself looking for articles I knew had been on Wikipedia, but had been deleted.<p>In December 2013 I had enough of the deletionism. I spent a few hours to set up <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;deletionpedia.org&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;deletionpedia.org&#x2F;</a> - to rescue articles from deletion.<p>It doesn&#x27;t deal with harassment, but it&#x27;s a useful resource if you want to find back something that was deleted on Wikipedia.<p>(The site had been set up before, but the original creator let it slip.)
