English subtitles for clip: File:كيف يعمل ويكيبيديا – A WIKI MINUTE 9-16.webm

1
00:00:00,700 --> 00:00:02,466
A lot can happen in a Wiki minute

2
00:00:02,466 --> 00:00:04,233
Like the 60 seconds of everything

3
00:00:04,233 --> 00:00:06,500
that happens on Wikimedia projects

4
00:00:06,500 --> 00:00:08,200
or even the time it takes to answer:

5
00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:10,600
How does Wikipedia work?

6
00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:13,600
Wikipedia is the free encyclopedia everyone can edit

7
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:15,233
It exists with the vision of a world…

8
00:00:15,233 --> 00:00:19,200
In which every single person can freely share
the sum of all human knowledge.

9
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:22,000
Every month, nearly 300,000 volunteers

10
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:23,166
-people like you!-

11
00:00:23,166 --> 00:00:25,733
come together from all around the world to write, edit,

12
00:00:25,733 --> 00:00:29,500
update, debate, and fact-check the content
that makes that vision come true.

13
00:00:29,500 --> 00:00:33,566
These collaborators, contributors, and
creators curate and compile information

14
00:00:33,566 --> 00:00:35,933
that’s accurate, neutral, and well-sourced

15
00:00:35,933 --> 00:00:38,466
and free for anyone to access and use...

16
00:00:38,466 --> 00:00:41,266
...which is probably why Wikipedia
is one of the first places people go

17
00:00:41,266 --> 00:00:43,633
when trying to learn virtually anything.

18
00:00:43,633 --> 00:00:46,966
The articles they edit are read
more than 16 billion times a month

19
00:00:46,966 --> 00:00:49,200
(yup, billion with a “B”!)

20
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:52,033
And the knowledge they create often
becomes the source of information that

21
00:00:52,033 --> 00:00:55,600
powers some of the world’s main search
engines and virtual voice assistants.

22
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:58,000
And that's how Wikipedia works.

23
00:00:58,000 --> 00:00:58,800
In only a minute!
