 * Wikipedians often talk about "content gaps." What do you think a content gap is, and what are some possible ways to identify them?
 * I think a content gap is when valuable/ important information from a Wikipedia article is missing. For example, if someone is writing about one of Martin Luther King Jr.'s marches, and they talk about everything that happened on the day of the march and the outcome, a content gap here would be forgetting to mention why the march started and what its goal was.
 * What are some reasons a content gap might arise? What are some ways to remedy them?
 * Possible ways to identify a content gap is to do additional research on article to find what information is missing, or what the author may have over looked and decided to not include in the article, thinking it may not be relevant.
 * Does it matter who writes Wikipedia?
 * No, anyone is allowed to edit a Wikipedia page. You don't need any training in technology or writing because Wikipedia teaches how to use it's tools.
 * What does it mean to be "unbiased" on Wikipedia? How is that different, or similar, to your own definition of "bias"?
 * To be unbiased on Wikipedia, you should not let your views and opinions lead what you're writing. What is done on Wikipedia should be supported by evidence and should not include opinions or personal conclusions and claims unless stated in a source. This is different than being biased to me because my views usually motivate me to write. I use my perspectives to draw interest on a topic, but on Wikipedia, I must put all my ideas aside and write purely from sources and facts.
