Well none of us are immune to lies, but how is that a problem specific to wikipedia? Isn't that a much larger issue regarding humanity and our media ecosystem?
If you click on either of those wikipedia pages I sent to you, what citations do you believe are lies or used incorrectly ?
Here are two pages I've gone through a lot I can verify have correct citations in them. In fact, one of the citations in one of these is my research! which I know for certain was cited correctly.
How do you know they often aren't? I'm an academic and regularly use wikipedia to find citations for sources. I've have yet to come across any citations that were wrong.
Yesss crass records!
