 civver rated 2 months agoresearch - Wikipedia. A stepping source for research or a source for basic information on any subject. Remember to always check the sources of an article. If you feel like it's fun to just randomly edit articles for fun, feel free to remove yourself from the gene pool.
 studom rated 3 months agoresearch, wiki, encyclopedia - I love Wiki, it is so useful; as long as you triangulate your research as some of the articles may not be truthful; in addition, certain articles can be vandalised so be on your guard.

 Innomen rated 3 months ago- I love wiki, and the information itself is top notch except in that its not coming from an old white guy with a British accent complete with glasses labcoat and clip board, which is pretty much the biggest problem people have with wiki if they are honest.
I'm thumbing them down because they hire or sanction Napoleonic insecure condescending little cretins as moderators some of whom I honestly think are plants designed to erode Wiki from the inside out as a form of industrial espionage.
Wiki has gutted many forms of information sale both online and in meatspace. To believe this will go answered only by snide commentary is naive in the extreme.
I STRONGLY think the pendulum is swinging to the deletionist side. Wiki should only concern itself with factuality and organization, not on what I should or should not be interested in, which is precisely what these absurd notability guidelines actually mean. I don't care if YOU think it's not notable or worthy of inclusion, I do. And I am clearly not alone.
As said by others wiki is a storehouse of censorship and misinformation by context control, usually in the form of deletions, but none of that renders the site useless.
indeed, if you feel the need to hold up any information source as an unchallengeable oracle, you need to go watch fox news with he rest of the drones.
Newsflash ALL forms of information require critical thinking skills if you want to even approximate the truth.
But so long as these topics are reduced to "crowd sourcing makes everything on Wiki a lie" and "OMG Wiki for president!" with no official attempt to dissuade this character of debate, by say removing the entire moderator system which is nothing more than an attempt to throw a lab coat on, they get a firm thumbs down from me, as an organization.
