in thread Is Wikipedia afraid of MojoMojo?

As a previous poster said, Wikipedia is often unfair and the quality of it's content suffers because of it.

The MojoMojo drama has confirmed for me what I already suspected... and that is that Wikipedia does not deserve the reputation it has as a source of reliable / impartial information. The only things we can do are a) inform others and/or b) prepare a better replacement.

This article describes exactly this issue, for those interested.

    No one source is reliable or impartial. Wikipedia is a good starting point for research, but it's not some magical oracle.
