Why Dante would have contributed to Wikipedia

All men whom the higher nature has imbued with a love of truth should feel impelled to work for the benefit of future generations, whom they will thereby enrich just as they themselves have been enriched by the labours of their ancestors. Let there be no doubt in the mind of the man who has benefited from the common heritage but does not trouble to contribute to the common good that he is failing sadly in his duty.

My name is Iain McIntyre. I am a male 30something and live in the UK. I am also a musician with a Bachelor's Degree in Music, but I no longer work in music. I have composed several works — including a concerto for piano and alto flute, and a large-scale work for wind instruments — all of which remain unpublished. My poem "Unaccompanied" won an award after I submitted it on Poetry.com and was published in a compilation in 2004. I presently live here (as a carer for my father), though I was born here (of parents from here) and have lived here, here, here, here and here, among other places. I am not an Australian rock star (unfortunately).

Orion in The Book of Fixed Stars
The Book of Fixed Stars (Arabic: كتاب صور الكواكب kitāb suwar al-kawākib, literally The Book of the Shapes of Stars) is an astronomical text written by Abd al-Rahman al-Sufi (Azophi) around 964. Following the Graeco-Arabic translation movement in the 9th century AD, the book was written in Arabic, the common language for scholars across the vast Islamic territories, although the author himself was Persian. It was an attempt to create a synthesis of the comprehensive star catalogue in Ptolemy's Almagest (books VII and VIII) with the indigenous Arabic astronomical traditions on the constellations (notably the Arabic constellation system of the Anwā'). The original manuscript no longer survives as an autograph, however, the Book of Stars has survived in later-made copies. This image from the book shows the constellation of Orion, in mirror image as if on a celestial globe, and is from a copy in the Bodleian Library dated to the 12th century AD.Ilustration credit: Abd al-Rahman al-Sufi
