Not trash as in wrong but trash in utterly useless.
If you have enough knowledge to understand the article then you don't need it because you understand the field. If you don't it's impenetrable.
Perhaps I'm wrong: are there people out there who learnt something from a Wikipedia page on maths because you fell between the two?
- spauldo 1y agoI have the same experience. I've got enough math and enough interest that I can follow concepts taught to math undergrads, if it's explained well and I play with it a bit. Wikipedia math articles may as well be line noise to me. Fortunately, there are plenty of other sources I can turn to.
