Wikipedia : growing pains challenge credibility

You are viewing a post about Wikipedia : growing pains challenge credibility at Newsami, posted in Politics.

Wikipedia is a free online encyclopedia that’s edited by its users. It’s four years old and can be used in a variety of languages. Many schools of all levels around the country have instructors who encourage students to look things up on Wikipedia, which is thought to have reliable information. While there are staff members who check pages for errors, they can’t come close to keeping up with the level of daily edits performed to the website. The open-society feel has helped contribute to its growth, yet it is also the same thing that is contributing to hardships for the online encyclopedia.
