The wisdom of the crowd can only genuinely exist when everyone participates.
Wikipedia is a good example of this.
It isn’t so much the wisdom of the crowd, more like the views of a few people
The danger with seeking the wisdom of the crowd is that it runs the risk of becoming an echo chamber.
Your challenge then is to hear the wisdom of those who aren’t part of the crowd.
