wikipedia is a good portal when you want to learn about a topic. It has quick links to related articles so you can get to what you want to learn. You just have to confirm any “facts” you learn for accuracy.
I use wiki for trivial information. I would never trust it for any thing that can be slanted (such as biography or history).
“Most high schools and colleges do not allow students to cite Wikipedia as a source in their research.”
Sounds like a big recommendation for Wikipedia, if the “re-education camps” forbid its use!
As with any source, use your own good brain. Integrative thinking skills.
They lost my trust when they went to BCE, instead of BC. That is total absurdity.
WOW
Sanger’s interview with Greenwald is eye-opening:
Sanger claims the CIA and FBI have been secretly operating the site for the past 15 years.
He made the bombshell admission during an interview with Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative journalist Glenn Greenwald.
Sanger claims that Wikipedia has become a tool of “control” in the hands of the U.S. government.
He warns that the site is now heavily controlled by the CIA, FBI, and other intelligence agencies.
“We do have evidence that … even as early as … 2008 … that CIA and FBI computers were used to edit Wikipedia,” Sanger told Greenwald.
mmm ... mmm ... mmm
Barack Hussein Obama.
They are okay on non-political entries, not perfect by any measure, but are unabashed liars on political entries.
The CIA and FBI have far exceeded their mandate and now control virtually ALL information.

Wikipedia has a bright future—as the official source of the latest dictats and narratives from the all powerful world government.
One stop shopping for the obedient citizens!
I’m a subject matter of sorts for a certain topic and occasionally access Wiki just to see what they say. I’ve found the information there to be less than accurate.
It appears just about anyone can edit it, and those with ulterior motives can create just about any truth they choose.
Wiki has turned out to be another version of the left’s “fact checking”, which is nothing more than a tool used to verify an absolute lie as being the truth. The sheep suck it up as fast as they suck up extra covid boosters.
Rather, an intelligent and informed person knows the different bwtn WP being a quality resource on non-PC topics, while its reliability is basically as good as its links, but that it is clearly liberal on political and moral issues, while it is not even qualified to deal with the Bible.
Yet, since it is such prime resource, informed Christians who actually practice substantiation of issues, and are able to find scholarly research (not the likes of Gateway Pundit) to at least provide balance to liberal articles, by the grace of God, can be amiss in not doing so, though it means potentially facing one or more of a cadre of experienced editors who can cite their interpretation of the numerous WP Policies and Guidelines to delete what they do not like.
One of example remaining balance: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African-American_family_structure which one liberal stated: "These are the types of articles that I wish white folks would not be able to edit or comment on." Another, "this...may be worst Wikipedia article I've ever read."

Still useful for generic stuff. BTW, it is free if you don’t donate. :)
Wiki is so inaccurate that it cannot be used as a reference for college papers.
It’s a very good first stop as long as the subject has no relevance to current political issues. In that case it’s laughable.
That said, within those limits, I use it all the time.

The site is currently asking for donations. Would that be considered a bribe? Betcha they take chicom loot as well.
Interesting article ping.
