Communal online encyclopaedias represent one of the latest resources to be found on the Internet. They are in many respects like traditional printed encyclopaedias collections of articles on various subjects. What is specific to these online encyclopaedias, however, is that any Internet user can contribute a new article or make an editorial change in an existing one. As a result, the encyclopaedia is authored by the whole community of Internet users. The idea might sound attractive, but the communal online encyclopaedias have several important problems that make them much less valuable than traditional, printed encyclopaedias.
First, contributors to a communal online encyclopaedias often lack academic credentials, thereby making their contributions partially informed at best and downright inaccurate in many cases. Traditional encyclopaedias are written by trained experts who adhere to standards of academic rigor that no specialists cannot really achieve.
Second, even if the original entry in the online encyclopaedia is correct, the communal nature of these online encyclopedias gives unscrupulous users and vandals or hackers the opportunity to fabricate, delete, and corrupt information in the encyclopedia. Once changes have been made to the original text, an unsuspecting user cannot tell the entry has been tampered with. None of this is possible with a traditional encyclopedia.
Third, the communal encyclopaedias focus too frequently, and in too great a depth, on trivial and popular topics, which creates a false impression of what is important and what is not. A child doing research for a school project may discover that a major historical event receives as much attention in an online encyclopaedia as, say, a single long-running television program. The traditional encyclopaedia provides a considered view of what topics to include or exclude and contains a sense of proportion that online "democratic" communal encyclopaedias do not.

The reading article and the speaker both talk about the online and offline communal encyclopaedias. The passage centralises around the idea that online resources are not trustable than the written format. Opposite, the speaker disagrees with the idea and claims the best source rather than traditional sources. Some of the points are mentioned below.

Firstly, a passage avers the information that online data lacks academic credentials and sometimes provides partial information. Moreover, handwritten is more reliable and accurate. On the other hand, the narrator rejects the idea and points out that the online sources are less prone to errors, whereas the ancient written cannot be corrected if noted down once.

Secondly, the paragraph posits that the online material is inclined to be hacked and the details can be altered by anyone. Furthermore, the information can be corrupted and be misused, whereas it is not possible in offline materials. However, the speaker contradicts with the facts and supports that online sources provide the protection from being hacked and copied, as the data is only in a readable format. Also, data editors are employed in order to track any sort of mishandling of the informative material.

Lastly, the reading essay conveys that in orthodox sources, the material was entered after a lot of focus on the content. Adding more, online sources focus on one source. On the other side, the narrator tells that the information in the ancient hard copy materials has limited space, unlikely, the online information has no boundary, with the diversified users.

On winding up, it can be inferred that both article and the speaker pivot the merits and demerits points about the online and offline sources of data storage, with the specific illustrations.
