The correct answer to this open question is the following.

What would Diderot think of modern-day versions that solicit user-generated entries, such as Wikipedia?

Denis Diderot (1713-1784), one of the brightest minds of the Enlightenment, known for being the creator of the Encyclopedia. He was a French brilliant writer and historian who was interested in gather contributors to create the first concept of the Encyclopedia with vast information.

Diderot would have approved the modern concept of an encyclopedia as it is the case for Wikipedia because supported the collection of knowledge to be shared with people in order to improve education.

Do such versions undermine or support his original purpose in creating his Encyclopedia?

Every effort to collect information in order to allow people to research and learn is valid. By no means, these modern versions undermine the original purpose of Diderot's efforts. On the contrary, it is a powerful way to share information that could be applied by people and students to improve their knowledge and make further research.

Early mapmakers faced many problems with making maps that they do not face today. Write a response explaining the problems and h
Hoochie [10]

The early mapmakers really had it very hard to create a proper map, as they didn't had any of the modern technology that nowadays we do. They had to rely on their orientation in the space, be able to properly adjust the distances, using only their eyes and brains. Also, they were putting into the maps areas that were told and described by them by people that were there, but they personally haven't even seen the place. The knowledge they had about the size of the world was very limited, as they were not really able to travel that much during their lifetime.

Their interpretation is usually relatively good and relatively accurate considering the circumstances. Of course there were some misjudged distances and proportions, but not by far. Since they only new so much of the world, they usually were making the map, thus the size of the world, from the eastern most location they new, to the westernmost location they new, either putting straight lines like that is the end of the world, or putting waters to mark the same.
