Re: Golden: Mapping human knowledge
#13Jude CEO and Founder of Golden here. Super excited to take this live. We are out to build the next place for canonical knowledge on the Internet. It has been a long-term mission for me to open up the knowledge coverage of billions of niche topics, companies, technologies and new concepts. Our aim is to cover in excess of 10bn topics in high detail over time. Although we all love Wikipedia, there have been various iss…
Just reading the article I am extremely interested in the Advanced Query search. Bravo on allowing the user to decide how they search(unlike some products). It's something I have been waiting for years. What I would like to see next is the ability to mark items that should be excluded from the search. Usually when I am doing a long complicated and unpredictable search for information, I will go down rabbit holes and from my experience exclude all the information results that I know for sure I do not want. Unfortunately I have to keep track of the items mentally which limits the capacity of relevant info I can find.

#14> Golden’s mission is to collect, organize and express 10+ billion topics in an accessible way, presented in neutrally-written and comprehensive topic pages.
How do you plan to uphold the neutrally-written part? Wikipedia does not really do this; many editors try, but it is very difficult. This is especially true seeing as every one carries personal biases. How will you make sure opinions that do not agree with the majority of your users, editors, etc. are allowed?

#15Love the modern take and long tail focus!
Do you think the paid features for enterprise use is enough to support a VC model? (How do you avoid this becoming Quora (which also had an enterprise proposed use case)?)
What was the decision process around taking this a VC route vs not?
Re: Golden: Mapping human knowledge
#16I hope it will not be registration walled like Quora but more open like stackexchange websites or hn. I refuse to participate to registration-ponzi-scheme. What will the content licence be ?
Jude from Golden here. We won't do the reg wall - hold me to it :>. We want the information to be open and EASY to access, thus no reg screen. CC4.0
Re: Golden: Mapping human knowledge
#17How will you handle people that want to add knowledge that isn't accurate such as flat-Earthers, anti-vaxxers, etc? Seems like only a matter of time until you're overrun with contentious and vocal minorities that have nothing better to do than undermine our species longterm survival.

#18why not join efforts with wikipedia?

You say that you'll be doing more media and learning oriented content than Wikipedia: how are you planning to support this - given how many contributors Wikipedia has? (And if you don't mind then maybe you could go deeper into how would you compare to Wikipedia. :)
Good luck!
Re: Golden: Mapping human knowledge
#20I like the concept. I'd like to know how they plan on addressing auditability of content - where it comes from, how it changes over time, etc.
Jude from Golden here. TLDR answer on this important question and I’m interested in the community ideas on this problem set: 1. High visual transparency and open edit logs eg golden.com/wiki/Morphogenetic_Engineering/activity 2. Using real profiles so we can prevent bots / multi accounts etc. 3. Cross checking SPO/fact triples in the prose against our structured data to validate information. 4. Cross checking against…
9. Github style issues feels much more modern, as a semi-regular wiki editor talk pages are one of my least favorite (and hardest to audit) parts of Wikipedia
