Can you trust Wikipedia?
From the recent pages of Guardian Unlimited.
Judge for yourself. Here.
To be fair though, the "test" isn't entirely balanced, nor is it a really objective test (i.e., no reference is made of whether the Wiki content was referenced against an actual published encyclopedic note). But the overall tenor of the news item just points out to the obvious.
Wiki is WIP. Work In Progress.

WIP wiki is better than RIP Wiki. no? :-). I like Wiki. but it can be a huge time-sink and to think that some of 'em may be inaccurate makes me doubly unhappy.
well happy week ahead buddy. Who wins today? Pats or Colts? Well you know what I'd say. even I won't believe if Pats (the world champs hee hee.) manage to pull it off.
