God this is like the "Mac is better the PC's cause a commercial told me" thing. Just because SOME people say that "Omigosh! Anyone can edit wikipedia! That mean's it wrong!" Doesn't mean it's true.

Is a very nice answer. I guess some people just can't see that just because it's not written in stone/ink, it's not correct. Well, books have been wrong too before right? Like the "Man will never land on moon" or "We'll all live in space in the year 2003!" but nobody ever made a big deal about that.
I think the whole wikipedia thing is a bunch of malarky or a big scandal made up just to sell news. People who don't like wikipedia don't have to spend every waking minute complaining, they should just... stick to encarta..
