KM wikipedia regression

Since December the KM entry at wikipedia has taken a turn for the worse. This is unfortunate and as folk interested in the domain, it puts us to shame. So I have started to rewite some of the sections and would like to appeal to you to lend a hand.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knowledge_management

I'm suggesting we have these sections

  • Overview
  • History
  • The KM domain
  • Core theory
  • KM competencies
  • References
  • External links
  • KM bloggers

Where possible we should have separate linked pages within Wikipedia for sub-themes, e.g. intellectual capital, knowledge assets, KM generations or key conepts, e.g. tacit knowledge, knowledge mapping.

The aim should be to showcase the depth, importance, applicability and value of KM, include pointers to key content, people and provide a quick entry point to our domain knowledge.

the structure you propose Denham is certainly more thorough than what exists in the w-pedia now, but is this re-write effort to be given just for the posterity of km? to me, km seems to have run its course, even though the needs it was meant to fill are as relevant, or even more so now. what should be the "real goal" of this effort? perhaps km as a historical perspective for what comes next?

Hi Denham,
Funnily enough, I was checking this out this week - I'm certainly up for helping you with the overhaul...
Cheers,
Chris
