i. 'Write a short paragraph about yourself -' be careful of how much personal information you want to include about yourself. (1 point) I am a retread in the world. I had a goal to join the military when I was much younger and followed it until it came to an end. Now I am starting over on a new journey through education and intend to expand my view of the world and my fellow man. ii. Answer the following questions in a sentence or two: What are the Five Pillars of Wikipedia? ( 1 point)the five pillars of Wikipedia are the guideline of what it is, what its intended goal is and how its manifestation is intended to be. 1. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. 2. Wikipedia is written from a neutral point of view. 3. Wikipedia is free content that anyone can edit, use, modify, and distribute. 4. Editors should interact with each other in a respectful and civil manner. 5. Wikipedia does not have firm rules. 2. Describe a Neutral Point of View. ( 1 point) A neutral point is a point of view that is not judgmental or sways to one side of an issue (just the facts) 3. Describe the No Original Research Policy. ( 1 point) I could not find a link specific to this question but I will guess that this means that Wikipedia is not intended to be used as a publishing forum for personal research because that would set a research on top of a research conflict and therefore would be non-verifiable information passed off as verified. 4. Describe the Verifiability Policy. ( 1 point) This policy means that the information must be cited or verifiable in a public forum
