I had a bad and shocking experience with editing two articles in the Wikipedia,a day back. One concerned a certain loaning Departments,which were charging huge interests on the poor.The addition stands now. But I made some entries which were true,with links,as Wikipedia stipulates,which did not depict the person concerned,as the way the article claimed.The entries in the second case were removed,as soon as I made them.The person is a Prime Minister. Have you had such an experience,with Wikipedia?

Yep, the average wikipedia user is a narrow-minded man or woman carrying a huge head with them with matching ego. I've had so many terrible experiences that I give up. Despite the website saying that making mistakes isn't bad... so wrong...

Yeah exactly. The concept is fun and well thought out but that's everything that's good about it.

That is why I dont trust everything that is written in wikipedia. There are always some conflicting facts in there. Especially if you are in the medical field.
