Unhappy Wikipedia may not always be correct

QUOTE:

The edits were discovered by Dutch media using Wiki Scanner, an online tool that tracks changes to Wikipedia, where anyone can submit and edit entries.

According to Wiki Scanner, the entry saying Mabel provided "incomplete and false information" about Bruinsma was changed to just "incomplete information" in January 2006.

Friso and his wife are the latest in a long list of people, companies and institutions that have changed their entries in Wikipedia. It is usually considered bad taste to change one's own entry in the online encyclopedia.

Wiki Scanner has also revealed that changes to entries on the Iraq war and Guantanamo Bay prison have been made from CIA and FBI computers.

Red face Google

i don't know about you but i Google my questions, often getting various results... usally when more then a few come to the same conclusion i kind of have my answer. like when searching for more info on supras.. i googled it and stumbled onto this kick ass site. nice people, good info, and great POSITIVE minds !!

and yeah wikipeidia may not always be correct but for the most part it has pretty accurate info.. if in doubt google it and look up multiple sources of info, other forums, articles, any bit of info.
