Wikipedia is a big time scam. The left-wing cliques tightly guard updates and strike down anything they disagree with.

I never really trusted Wiki as a source, after learning how it operates, it's a propaganda machine.

“Hillary’s hobby is looking at female behinds. If you have a good picture of a female behind, please send it to her.”

We know that's not true.

Her hobby is looking at breasts.

Colleges will give an F to any paper that used Wikipedia as a source.

Boy Howdy! Ever since they announced their pages would be written by millennial liberals, every democrat bio reads like a campaign ad, and every conservative bio reads like an indictment. I would be thrilled to access an actual neutral source for a change. Go, Encyclosphere!

#19. Also look at www.keywiki.org. It is an internal security website that is structured much like Wikipedia but is carefully controlled for materials in it (limited editors review submitted materials and it must be sourced).

Anything that isn’t explicitly Right-Wing, becomes Left-Wing over time.

Scopes tilts heavily liberal. Of course, they would absolve Wikipedia.

It is just a matter of time before Wikipedia’s math articles are eliminated because too many mathematicians are white males. :-(

You’re at least 15 years late in noticing this bud.

So are their history and science articles if the subject is even remotely related to politics.

Wikipedia is a fine resource if you want to know who was the drummer for Journey, or what are all the books in the Valdemar series. Anything remotely political or religious - forget it.

Really? Do you think the majority of High School and College students espouse conservative ideology?

Wikipedia simply validates their liberal bent.

Dang it I screwed up. Rationalwiki is a bunch of leftist atheists.

I was thinking of Conservapedia.

Wikipedia is very good on historical accuracy from hundreds of years ago or on personal profiles of people that lived centuries ago

other than that politically these days it’s hopelessly liberal
