WARSAW, Poland (AP) A university professor says that a western Polish town is taking up his suggestion and will put up a monument to honor the authors of Wikipedia, the Internet encyclopedia which allows anyone to contribute.
Krzysztof Wojciechowski, director of the Collegium Polonicum in Slubice, said Thursday that he is in awe of the huge and reliable job done by Wikipedia, vastly popular in Poland. More than 1 million entries in Wikipedia are in Polish, rivaling the number in French or Spanish.
"I'm ready to drop to my knees before Wikipedia, that's why I thought of a monument where I could do it," Wojciechowski told The Associated Press.
The 47,000 zlotys ($14,000; 11,000 euros) fiber and resin statue is funded by Slubice authorities and will be unveiled Oct. 22.

Monument to Wikipedia?
Google has removed over 50 links to Wikipedia from its search results on European domains as a consequence of the EU's "right to be forgotten" ruling which, according to Wikimedia, "punches holes in freeknowledge."
The foundation behind Wikipedia last week started receiving notices that certain links to Wikipedia content would no longer appear in search results served to people in Europe, Wikimedia's general counsel Geoff Brigham and legal counsel Michelle Paulsonwrote in a blog post Wednesday.
The links to Wikipedia were removed as a direct result of a May ruling by the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU). The decision gave EU citizens the right to compel search engines to remove results for queries that include a person's name, if the results are "inadequate, irrelevant or no longer relevant, or excessive."
Wikimedia so far received five notices for search result removals from Google, covering more than 50 links pointing to the Dutch, English and Italian versions of Wikipedia, it said. Most of the deleted search results referred to Dutch Wikipedia editor discussion pages and pages with formal mediation between editors.
Google said in the notifications sent to Wikimedia that, due to privacy concerns, it was not able to disclose why it removed the results for a certain name query.
"In many cases the affected queries do not relate to the name of any person mentioned prominently on the page," Google said, adding that in some cases the name may only appear in the comments section.
For example, two links pointing to the English version of Wikipedia were removed by Google: a link to a photo with the title "Tom Carstairs in concert" and a link to a page about an Irish bank robber called Gerry Hutch.
This might initially imply that Carstairs and Hutch themselves requested the links to be removed. However, when searching for their names using a European Google search domain like google.nl, the links still appear. This suggests that the links were removed for name searches other than "Tom Carstairs" and "Gerry Hutch."
A link to an Italian article about the Banda della Comasina, a Milan group that was involved in robberies, kidnappings and drug trafficking in the 70s, was also removed. A link to a related article about Renato Vallanzasca, the leader of the group, also doesn't appear as a result for certain queries. However, it does not appear that Vallanzasca filed the takedown request, since the links appear under searches on his name.
According to Wikimedia's executive director, Lila Tretikov, the CJEU's decision is "undermining the world's ability to freely access accurate and verifiable records about individuals and events," she said in a blog post.
