Wikipedia, the online encyclopedia from the US, is 25 years old this year! It is one of the world’s most visited websites.

Wikipedia started as a simple project. At first, it was a helper site for Nupedia, which had strict and slow checks for articles. Its founder, Jimmy Wales, wanted to make knowledge sharing easier for everyone.

Now, nearly 250,000 volunteer editors worldwide work hard to write, update and improve its articles. They follow five key rules, like keeping opinions neutral (中立) and being polite. The Wikimedia Foundation, a non-profit organization, runs and supports the website.

Today, Wikipedia is very powerful. It has over 65 million articles in more than 300 languages and gets nearly 15 billion views every month. Different from other websites, it is completely free. It covers countless topics, from history and science to popular culture. You can find answers to all kinds of daily questions.

Even so, Wikipedia still faces doubts. Many people question its accuracy. This is because most of its editors are ordinary people, not experts. Wikipedia pages do have errors. The organization tries to fix problems with its review system. Wikipedia also has other challenges. It has no ads, and its funds come only from donations. However, Wales says he will still stick to his dream –“to do something useful for the world”, as he told The Washington Post.

Highlighter pens are very useful for students. They help students find key points quickly when they study. They’re also important for business people. For example, people use them to mark the place where a contract (合同) needs to be signed. The neon colours (荧光色) of highlighters make them nearly impossible to ignore. You might think someone created such a useful tool on purpose, but the highlighter was actually invented by accident!
