Is it ok to crawl and download all of Wikipedia content?
- tokenadult 15y agoThe answers are correct as to Wikipedia's licensing and its practices about mass downloads and spidering. But the more important question is why anyone would trust a lot of the information on Wikipedia, which is still chock full of systematic bias and amateur editing errors in its articles on many subjects. (I write this as a Wikipedian, who was formally trained in research in two noncognate languages before Wikipedia ever existed.)
