MrFrost says a system run like wiki will never be perfect due to human error, but I think most of the time its more than useful. And also. nobody should ever take information from ONE source as the gospel.. especially on the internet.. wiki is no exception.

rider says It was already fixed. I went there to fix it myself and someone was working on it at the same time as me. Anyone can edit to make it say whatever they want. So you edit it to make it say something funny then make a post here about how stupid wikipedia is. Even if you were not the one who changed it you could have fixed easily proving how great wikipedia is.

nicki says Calm down, I was just making a quick, lighthearted observation - not an indictment. And I didn't make the correction myself because I have never contributed to Wikipedia; I left that for more experienced hands. Like yours, it seems. Wait a minute, were you hinting at some conspiracy behind this post? Dear lawd.

rider says Your "Quick, check it out before they try to gain credibility again!" comment sure makes it sound like an indictment. And just so you know just click on edit then in this case you just need to delete the text, it's basically just like editing any post that's on here. That the great thing about it.
