I'm starting to re-think the whole Wikipedia thing.
I've been using the site for research related to my online travel site, and I've noticed a lot of facts and figures that are either outdated, slightly off-the-mark, or just plain wrong. Without an update schedule or paid staff, some of the content goes stale very quickly. I suspect this will worsen over time.
None would be glaringly obvious to a casual reader (e.g. the number of rooms at certain Las Vegas resorts is wrong, the current ownership status of some casinos is outdated), but God forbid that people take it for truth.
I updated a couple of entries myself, but I no longer trust it on the whole.
- litewulf 18y agoI think it'd be nice if wikipedia made it more obvious when something had been last updated, or some sort of micro-info-graphic representing freshness. Or something.
