If some group of people think Wikipedia is bullshit, they're going to miss out on the most accessible repository of human knowledge that Man has ever compiled.
That's their own problem. They will fall behind others.
- qbaqbaqba 8y agoShould we care more about accessibility or reliability? If Wikipedia is the source of knowledge for you, you may have a problem.
- scarejunba 8y agoIt's both, of course. Never before has something so comprehensive and accurate ever been compiled. You can condescend all you want. It is unparalleled as a first part of call regarding anything. People easily understand that reading about The West Bank on Wikipedia is a different exercise from reading about Charlotte Brontë and act accordingly.
- legostormtroopr 8y agoWikipedia is biased to hell now days - pages are now routinely “owned” by editors, not because they are experts in a field but because they have the most time to camp pages.
