  • Wikipedia sucks big time!!! Especially the articles regarding countries and history!

  • @jkyet

    Exactly! A majority of the history books in America are ridiculous!! I actually did some research on some of the books and it seems to me that an American's view of history is not even close to real history!!

  • @agger12343 yeah he said "mostly" just like most of what you read in history books is true, mostly.

  • LOL! "Mostly"... He says!

  • well theres quite a distance between handfulls and completely (100%) false

  • oi igotnoideawhattoput your an idiot. wikipedia is constantly scanned over and over again by volunteers who will pick out and fix any incorrect information on major articles. pages on wikipedia are often incorrect because they are about the things that don't matter. the major articles on say countries, capital cities or famous people are all therefore correct because of this.

  • Q: Are what we reading on Wikipedia true?

    A:Mostly, mostly true.

    That answer was completely NOT true! There are handful of misinformation on Wikipedia.

  • One star for exposing this moron a little, -4 stars for not pointing out the clear bias of Jimmy's pet evolutionist and atheist moderators.

  • How about being passionate for the truth, and not passionate for an atheist propaganda tool that pretends anyone is allowed to make corrections to it, when that's clearly not true. Bother to study the evidence for once instead being dumber than an animal.

  • It's good to see him answer some hard asked questions. I'm passionate about wikipedia, but it's a passion based on the potential of wikipedia not it's reality.

    The reality is that wikipedia is imperfect for the same reasons Jimmy Wales gave, which is that even the most reliable entry is based on a source that can never be perfect. Any news organization or history is controlled by it's focus. Giving undue attention in one topic, but ignoring another, just as equally important.
