Observer Gives Wikipedia Glowing Report
JaxWeb writes "The UK newspaper The Observer is running an article about the open encyclopaedia Wikipedia. The article, 'Why encyclopaedic row speaks volumes about the old guard,' gives Wikipedia a glowing report and mentions some of the issues which have recently occurred regarding the project, including the need to lock the George Bush article in the run up to the election, and Ex-Britannica editor Robert McHenry's comments, as previously mentioned on Slashdot."
And hey, look! We've locked the article again, since it's been featured on Slashdot. Lovely. :)
The World Wide Web is dying. Soon, we shall have only the Internet.
Naughty Jamesday! Get back to fixing the servers! *whip*

I am thinking about boycotting Wikipedia until there are more leftwing wikipedia admins

I always think of Wikipedia as being quite like the Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy. You'll find out a lot from reading it, if not always what you actually wanted to know...
Real Daleks don't climb stairs - they level the building.
Notice the Bush entry says he went to Clown College. He certinly must have paid attention there.
once you've read that a world-renowned figure skater was a member of GNAA, how can you trust anything you read on that site.
Agreed. None of the figure skaters in GNAA are all that good and they'll take any opportunity to overstate their achievements.
because they didn't call it "Wikipaedia."
