Google Taps Wikipedia’s Wales to Help Weigh “Right to Be Forgotten”
Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales says he wants a new GoogleGOOGL +0.19% advisory committee on privacy to be seen as a blue-ribbon panel taken seriously by lawmakers to guide public policy. Wales is one of seven members of the committee named late Thursday by Google, as it tries to comply with an EU court order to scrub personal information from search results upon request.

Still, Wales said there were times when it makes sense to prevent facts from being easily accessible online. He struck a measured tone, similar to one Google was trying to convey on Friday.
“There are some compromises possible,” Wales said. “We can begin to be a little more intellectual about what constitutes private data.”
As an example, he said he doesn’t think architectural floor plans for houses in Florida, a state with liberal public information policies, should be online. “It’s not at all clear to me what the public benefit is of putting a burglary map together for everybody,” he said.
But Wales said the responsibility lies with the government, not Google. The approach is similar to one Google has taken in the past, arguing that they are merely information middlemen.
The task is complex, said committee member Luciano Floridi, a philosopher at the Oxford Internet Institute, who was also tapped for the panel.
“Everyone would like to have all these elements: privacy, transparency, the right to be forgotten, the right to know,” Floridi said. “The trouble is that once you put them in the same system, you start looking at compromises.”
Wales said the panel should include opposing viewpoints, but he hasn’t had a chance to learn more about the other members. They include: Frank La Rue, a United Nations special rapporteur; Peggy Valcke, a director at the University of Leuven’s law school; José-Luis Piñar, a former director at Spain’s Data Protection Agency; Google Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt; and Google chief legal counsel David Drummond.
“I haven’t even had time to Google them all,” Wales said. “Presumably they won’t have all removed themselves from Google.”
La Rue, Valcke and Piñar weren’t immediately available for comment.
Wales said he wasn’t sure whether Google would ultimately follow the committee’s recommendations, which are expected out in 2015. He said he wasn’t sure how or when the group will meet–whether it will be in person, over the phone or even in a Google Hangout.
“Hopefully it will be a group that will be looking for some solutions that are a step forward that people on all sides can agree will be a useable set of recommendations,” he said.

維
基百科(Wikipedia)聯席創始人吉米•威爾斯(Jimmy Wales)近日表示，維基百科寧願放棄在中國開展業務，也不願接受中國方面任何形式的互聯網審查。

吉米•威爾斯在香港出席維基媒體國際大會。
自 6月初（即“六四”事件紀念日前夕）以來，中國國家防火牆(Great Firewall)對國內互聯網用戶封鎖了加密版維基百科。此前中國網民可以自由訪問加密版維基百科。現在，中國網民只可以訪問非加密版維基百科。在非加 密版維基百科網站上，政治敏感話題被封鎖，關鍵詞經常被過濾。
網絡維權人士隨後呼籲維基百科將加密版設為其默認網站，這樣一來外部力量就無法對其內容進行過濾，也無法追蹤用戶在該網站上的行為。他們說，這樣做將迫使中國政府在直接封鎖維基百科與允許網民訪問未過濾版的維基百科之間作出選擇。
威爾斯表示，他喜歡這個點子，但維基百科目前還沒有這個技術能力在中國這樣做，公司也不會關閉非加密版的維基百科。他並不特別擔心網絡攻擊風險，因為維基百科既不參與惡意活動也不傳輸金融數據。
去年12月份，中國人大會議決定要求互聯網絡接入服務供應商手收集用戶數據，把用戶的網絡身份與其真實身份相對應聯繫。
當被問到維基百科是否會遵照網絡實名制的要求去做時，威爾斯回答說：“就算是五秒鐘也不行”。
維 基百科是一個電子百科全書網絡，其數據資源來自大眾。它在中國的道路頗為坎坷。中國政府已多次封鎖維基百科，其中有一次封鎖從2005年持續到2007 年。中國的電子百科全書市場目前被百度(Baidu, Inc.)旗下的百度百科、搜搜百科(Soso.com)以及互動百科(Hudong)等本地網站所主導。
維基百科中文版（其中包括香港和台灣的詞條）創建於十多年前，目前已有超過700,000個詞條。
威爾斯稱，大多數情況下，非加密版維基百科在中國是可以訪問的，並指出，他看到中國大陸用戶的參與度提高了。但對於中國大陸網民來說，訪問維基百科仍面臨一些阻力，特別是在一些對訪問非中國網站的網民收取額外費用的地區。
威爾斯在一年一度的維基媒體國際大會(Wikimania)上還表示，維基百科已經開放了與中國政府的溝通渠道，希望維基百科以後不會在毫無預警的情況下隔天就被中國當局封鎖。
威爾斯說：“我們不贊成對網站內容過濾，但我們沒能力去阻止他人這樣做。”他還說，網民可以訪問維基百科參與編寫“人權”專題的詞條，這是一項權利，不受當局支配。
他說，“人們有權獲取知識，這是一項基本權利，我們在這一問題上的立場是堅定不移的，當然，中國政府在這一問題上的立場也相當堅定。”

來自維基百科創辦者Jimmy Wales的個人呼籲
Google有百萬台伺服器，Yahoo有13,000多名員工。我們有679台伺服器和95名職員。
維基百科是世界上排名第五的網站，每月爲4.5億用戶提供服務，有著數十億的頁面閱覽量。
商業本無過，廣告亦非惡。但它們不屬於這裏、不屬於維基百科。
維基百科是個特別的地方。它像座圖書館、像座公園，也像一座心靈的殿堂。它是我們思考、學習、與人分享知識的地方。
當我創立維基百科的時候，我是可以讓它成爲靠廣告賺錢的營利公司，但我決定做點不同的事情。這些年來，我們一直致力於確保它的精簡與節流。我們實踐我們的使命，避免不必要的支出與浪費。
如果讀到這封信的人都願意捐5美元，那麼我們每年只須募款一天就夠了。但並不是每個人都有能力或者有意願捐款，這沒有什麼關係。每年都會有剛好夠多的人願意伸出援手。
今年，希望您能考慮捐5美元、10歐元、1000日元或任何您力所能及的金額，來保障並維持維基百科的運作。
感激不盡。

From Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales
Google might have close to a million servers. Yahoo has something like 13,000 staff. We have 679 servers and 95 staff.
Wikipedia is the #5 site on the web and serves 450 million different people every month – with billions of page views.
Commerce is fine. Advertising is not evil. But it doesn't belong here. Not in Wikipedia.
Wikipedia is something special. It is like a library or a public park. It is like a temple for the mind. It is a place we can all go to think, to learn, to share our knowledge with others.
When I founded Wikipedia, I could have made it into a for-profit company with advertising banners, but I decided to do something different. We’ve worked hard over the years to keep it lean and tight. We fulfill our mission, and leave waste to others.
If everyone reading this donated $5, we would only have to fundraise for one day a year. But not everyone can or will donate. And that's fine. Each year just enough people decide to give.
This year, please consider making a donation of $5, €10, ¥1000 or whatever you can to protect and sustain Wikipedia.
Thanks,
Jimmy Wales

維基百科創始人吉米·威爾士的公開信
十年前，當我向人們談起維基百科時，很多人用異樣的眼神看著我。
我得承認，一些行業一直懷疑來自世界各地的志願者能否聚到一起，來共同創建一個人類知識的海洋- 而僅僅是為了單純的分享？
沒有廣告，沒有利潤，沒有議程。
在維基百科成立十年後，每個月有超過3.8億人使用，這幾乎是整個互聯網網民人數的三分之一。
它是全球第五大網站，其他四個都是通過億萬美金的投資、龐大的公司員工和不斷的市場營銷來建成與維護的。
但是，維基百科不同於任何一個商業網站。它是社群創造的結晶，是志願者們一條一條積累寫成的。您是我們社群的一員，因此今天我致信給您，請求您保護維基百科，讓它能夠維持下去。
通過共同的努力，我們就能讓它保持免費和沒有廣告，我們就能讓它保持開放——您可以隨心所欲地使用維基百科中的信息。我們能讓它持續成長——廣布知識，廣納賢才。
每逢此刻，我們都會向您和維基社群的其他成員求助，通過20、35、50美元甚至更多的小額捐助，協助維持我們共同的事業。
如果您視維基百科為您信息的來源和靈感的源泉，我希望您可以選擇立刻行動。
- 恭祝
維基百科創始人，吉米·威爾士
又及：維基百科展示了我們這樣的人成就大事的力量。是我們這樣的人，一字一句地寫著維基百科；也是我們這樣的人，一分一厘地資助著維基百科。這是我們的集體潛能可以改變世界的明證。
An appeal from Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales
I got a lot of funny looks ten years ago when I started talking to people about Wikipedia.
Let’s just say some people were skeptical of the notion that volunteers from all across the world could come together to create a remarkable pool of human knowledge – all for the simple purpose of sharing.
No ads. No agenda. No strings attached.
A decade after its founding, nearly 400 million people use Wikipedia and its sister sites every month - almost a third of the Internet-connected world.
It is the 5th most popular website in the world - but Wikipedia isn’t anything like a commercial website. It is a community creation, written by volunteers making one entry at a time. You are part of our community. And I’m writing today to ask you to protect and sustain Wikipedia.
Together, we can keep it free of charge and free of advertising. We can keep it open – you can use the information in Wikipedia any way you want. We can keep it growing – spreading knowledge everywhere, and inviting participation from everyone.
Each year at this time, we reach out to ask you and others all across the Wikimedia community to help sustain our joint enterprise with a modest donation of $20, $35, $50 or more.
If you value Wikipedia as a source of information – and a source of inspiration – I hope you’ll choose to act right now.
All the best,
Jimmy Wales
Founder, Wikipedia
P.S. Wikipedia is about the power of people like us to do extraordinary things. People like us write Wikipedia, one word at a time. People like us fund it, one donation at a time. It's proof of our collective potential to change the world.
