Talk:Open publishing

NPOV

This article is currently of the opinion that the "filters" of traditional media are bad and that open publishing is a superior paradigm. It needs to be re-worded to be neutral on this issue. -- Beland 21:34, 27 Feb 2005 (UTC)

NPOV on NPOV by Beland

The article does not state the "filters" are bad, nor does it suggest open publishing is a "superior paradigm." It merely states that "filters" do exist in traditional media without judging them. It also says that the "principles (of open publishing) include non-hierarchy, public participation, minimal editorial control, and transparency," none of which are biased against traditional media. -- JanpieterChielens 11:11, 9 Jun 2005 (CET)

Improvements needed

POV

As this talks only about the benefits, it is not NPOV. To make it NPOV, it will need considerable expansion. I will do this as I have time.

It will also need considerable expansion to accomodate info & links to the 30 or so WP articles that are relevant, I'll do a lttle of this, but not today. I hope others will do some.
Annison's law the 1st para belongs in "Open Source" which refers not just to softwar but has many topics like this one (good & interesting), Just not here. I've deleted it and rewriten the 2nd para to be self contained.
there are many more links,

I'll try to add a few today

Many of the links refer to open journalism-- is there a general page for that?

Crits of OP?

As OP is not a single CMS implementation, but a set of possibilities, it will be extremely difficult to make any general criticisms that satisfy NOPV. This despite there being many examples of OP sites that went wrong (over-run by attackers, etc.).
More fair is to compare and contrast the merits of any CMS or publishing workflow, probably on a seperate page. There are certainly disadvantages to the CMS workflow described on the Content management system page (like that it suggests an immutable process with fixed personnel, which is the last thing any CMS is!), and I would argue that OP is simply a method of altering workflow to maximize public participation.
Note that maximizing public participation should be characterized as democratizing, particularly where authoritarian regimes (political, economic or social) exist. But such democratizing effects are not limited in any way to situations where authoritarian regimes exist, nor is increased participation in broadly participatory systems just about democracy. More eyeballs can be evidence of market share, for one example. 142.161.156.160 16:50, 18 January 2007 (UTC) DH56.[reply]

All of these are valid general concerns. But one of the problems about changes in publication systems is that any one system, new or old, will have problems with the workflow, and one can use arguments based of quite real deficiencies to oppose innovation. A general article like this is probably not the lace to discuss details of particular systems or their advantages & disadvantages. DGG 04:02, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
