Trailer 1 from "Truth in Numbers: The Wikipedia Story"

Yes anyone can put anything they want into wikipedia. It turns out there is stability in instability. You would be surprised at how many systems around the world have come about from this realization. To name a few Democracy, Capitalism, heck even DNA.

Can't wait for the sequel - Truth in the Number 2: The Urban Dictionary Story.

that's because you probably made an article that had little need.

For instance, an article about a BioHazard character would not be needed. However, it might be shortened into a list.

IMPORTANT QUESTION, PLEASE ANSWER: Does anyone know if wikipedia can be modified by anyone equally? For example, can Joe the Plumber edit as much as Steven Hawking about Black Holes? Can verified experts be given the power to edit, and be held accountable for the edits with an identification number on their edit? We agree that all people should have a say, but I should not be able to disagree with Steven Hawking about the nature of the atom. Maybe I dont get it. Any answers please. Thanks.

Does anyone know the name of the song playing in the last third of the trailer?

Wikipedia rocks.....it's a great resource. As you guys saying it has few draw backs...but the plus points covers it all. I love wikipedia.

"Now through wikipedia, collectively, we write the history." Couldn't have said it better myself. I guess perception is reality.

On Jimmy Wales's wikipedia entry its is an INSTANT BAN if you add or even mention the FACT that before wikipedia Jimmy used to run an adult web site search.

Guess wikipedia isnt censored except when the founder is involved

Bomis? I don't see any porn on it. Maybe they erased the evidence!

Sometimes I'll quote Wikipedia directly...if what I'm quoting has a valid reference.
