Student Starts Wiki Site for C.U.

Cornell, like many universities, has a page on Wikipedia.org; in fact about 100 pages on the site have information about Cornell. Tyler Garzo ’08 thought Cornell needed more, so for his independent study project he created CUWiki.org, a site that runs on Wikipedia’s software, but contains only Cornell-specific information.

According to the site, its purpose is to “create a collective knowledge base of information about Cornell which doesn’t necessarily belong in the larger Wikipedia.”

“CUWiki’s goal is to address the smaller items of interest about Cornell — classes, departments, dorms, professors, clubs, rumors, legends and fast developing news — which may not be notable enough to be included on Wikipedia,” Garzo said.
