My main problem with Wikipedia how almost every article is already "claimed" by an editor/editors and a peasant like me has no chance to fix factual errors.
(made up) example: I live in a small town which has a blue stone in a square but the Wikipedia article says it's red. I went, made a photo that it's blue but Wikipedia doesn't accept it (several roadblocks to use your own photo, set up license, use correctly in the article etc.) then the editors just shut it down because there is no outside 3rd party source (just my photo, you can't reference yourself). So yeah I gave up and I hate it. And probs the editors never been here or I'd not even be surprised if they not even live in the same country.
