The thing that makes Wikipedia so special is the fact that the community strives to follow the guidelines they have set forth: - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Your_first_article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Your_first_article - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Be_bold https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Be_bold I'm not saying that every Wikipedia article adheres to them, but generally speaking, the quality is good and bias is severely frowned upon. "Random" web pages on any given topic miss out on these guidelines and are generally non-collaborative. Full disclosure: I'm a big fan/consumer of Wikipedia... absolutely love the philosophy behind it.
