Wikipedia

I never really sat down and thought about how amazing Wiki sights really are. Anyone can come online and add their knowledge to the Wiki world. It is just as easy for a PhD in physics to add information on the speed of light as it is for a 14 year old boy to add his expertise on Star Wars. I recently explored the website for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and found that information on the Relief Society was not up to date. During the General Relief Society Meeting in September 2009, Sister Julie B. Beck announced that the Family, Home and Enrichment Meetings would now be called simply Relief Society Meetings. The Wikipedia page did not reflect this change, so I edited the page and added the reference to Sister Beck's talk.

  1. I was there when they made that announcement at the meeting! Not only was it really amazing...but you could hear a collective sigh when everyone realized we didn't have to say "Home, Family and Enrichment" or something like that anymore!
