The why of Wikipedia: Bradford Patrick at TEDxSarasotaSalon

Bradford Patrick is an attorney who began working with Wikipedia in its earliest days, creatively strategizing ways to shield the online encyclopedia from legal troubles while it grew into one of the world's most visited websites. He discusses how he defended Wikipedia against being completely shut down in Germany and how he persuaded the owner of a notorious video series NOT to sue Wikipedia over his dissatisfaction with the site's article on the series. Filmed live at TEDxSarasotaSalon in November, 2012 at the Community Foundation of Sarasota County.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
