Wikipedia is OK for looking up most things, but I have noticed that when it comes to sensitive political information, Wikipedia offers a basically whitewashed version of events -either by the way it characterizes a person or happening, or by certain omissions that a researcher in the know would catch. Wikipedia is overwhelming pro-establishment (anti-populist).

A man was actually arrested in Canada due to erroneous information written about him on his Wikipedia site. The cops just went by what the wikipedia info said- they didnt check anything out any further.

"Truth" by consensus....like the potential mob rule of democracy...is dangerous.
