Examples of [Liberal] Bias in Wikipedia

[truthfinder9]

The site lists 34 examples. Not all, but most, show liberal bias.

[Clara Lou]

I don't care what kind of bias is there. Wikipedia, as a whole, is an unreliable source of information, particularly for use by children--which is my concern.

[TommyDale]

Any idiot can post to Wikipedia. And many liberal idiots use it for their own purposes.

[DManA]

The first example is just silly. BCE is the common parlance today.

[Borges]

Wikipedia is for quick cultural information. On that score it excels It's not for hard core historical-economic analysis.

[kerryusama04]

Isn't Widipedia open source? I've use it as an easy starting point for research, but it should never be cited as an authoritative source, IMO.

[Jedi Master Pikachu]

There's liberal bias ALL OVER Wikipedia, 34 articles are just a proverbial drop in the bucket.

Wikipedia isn't so great for political/country or religious topics, and for the former, especially those things about the United States.

[thackney]

I've come to use Wikipedia to find useful links at the bottom of each entry to actual information sources.

[WesternPacific]

This from a site that has a disclaimer warning students and researchers about citing information from their site. I believe a few grad students have been burned by Wikipedia.

[kerryusama04]

BCE bugs the crap out of me and I only ever hear it coming out of the mouths of smug professor-types, usually on the History Channel, and almost always with a British accent - even if the guy using it is from Texas or Brazil or somewhere that has nothing to do with England.

[Jedi Master Pikachu]

What do you consider "cultural information?" Personally, would consider it very bad for cultural information. It is decent for easily objective topics, such as chemical compounds and and the metric and British measuring systems.

Wikipedia is whatever you make it to be

[Clara Lou]

That's a very good idea.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

I first thought BCE looked like a British title.

One time a liberal said the nicest thing anyone ever said to me. She told me I wasn't very politically correct.

Appreciated.

BCE is just silly - no matter how often it's used.

[Michael.SF.]

Wikipedia's errors spill undetected into newspapers. ... it was not removed before the Daily News relied on it in this story:

Wikipedia, doing the work American journalist's refuse to do.

Conservapedia

Read the entry on George W. Bush there. It's embarrasingly bad. Most of the articles read like they were written as 9th grade writing assigments.
