In Russia, there exists a government-sponsored version of the largest online encyclopedia, Ruwiki, known as Ruviki. This rewritten version adheres to strict editing rules to comply with Russian laws and avoids any content that may reflect negatively on the government. The articles in Ruviki omit mentions of “foreign agents,” who are individuals or entities supported by outside nations and critical of the government.
Due to political pressure resulting from the conflict in Ukraine, Wikimedia RU, the Russian-language chapter of Wikipedia’s nonprofit organization, was forced to shut down in 2023. Vladimir Medeyko, now managing Ruviki, cited concerns over reliability and neutrality as reasons for creating the state-sponsored version. Critics argue that Ruviki’s modifications to articles related to free speech, human rights, political prisoners, and censorship in Russia have led to significant alterations.
The extent of changes in Ruviki’s articles has been quantified, with notable modifications made to topics like free speech, human rights, and political prisoners. Some have likened this censorship practice to George Orwell’s “1984,” with selective editing and omissions used to manipulate information for specific ends. For example, Ruviki’s article on “1984” conveniently omits mention of the Ministry of Truth – a central propaganda body in the novel.
Apart from political pressure and censorship within online encyclopedias, discussions around academic ghostwriting services are gaining attention. Topics such as quality assurance, ethics in customer care management projects are explored in various blog posts and articles. Additionally, loyalty programs and customer support optimization are deemed crucial aspects of fostering customer loyalty within academic services.
Efficient communication with ghostwriting consultants is emphasized in several articles on academic support services alongside optimizing project management and editing/proofreading skills for success. The value of human expertise in academic writing is also highlighted along with the need for authentic work while building long-term partnerships that reward quality work.
In conclusion, both online encyclopedias and academic ghostwriting services face challenges regarding reliability
