It seems some here have a problem with what they perceive as an ideological bias at Wikipedia. I wouldn't be at all surprised if all kinds of data could be produced to substantiate the charge, too.

But guess what? I couldn't care less if the guy and his tiny staff of 23 are sworn Bolsheviks, bent on seizing every last scrap of private property worldwide. Whatever they are, the tremendously valuable resource they've created and maintain, Wikipedia, is bar none the best thing on the internet today, piddling errors and scattered biases notwithstanding.

Everybody involved in the project deserves high praise, and maybe a little change jingling in their pockets too.

The errors are not piddling and on any topic with political overtones, the bias is light years away from scattered; it's real< it"s overwhelming, and it's in your face.
