Wiki is your friend....

Not so sure about it being my friend. I've read here on FR that, like Google, leftists are behind Wikipedia, so like the lamestream media, I put it squarely in the enemy camp. Nevertheless, thanks for the link.

A common issue here on FR with many viewpoints. I find Wiki to be quite helpful on technical matters and a lot of history and culture. It is especially good when you are justing looking up basic facts, e.g., names/dates/places. Sadly, 1 has to live long enough to store enough life experience in the gray matter to develop a sense when a Wiki entry is badly biased.

Leftists may own and run Wiki, but the myriad of info that can be found there is invaluable if you need to know something about practically anything. Just be warned that since the users like me and you and anyone else with any agenda are free to edit articles on Wiki the political stuff there is not to be trusted.

But who’s going to lie on Wiki about a song or a musical artist? After all, it’s just trying to be an online encyclopedia.
