Wikipedia? Over-rated

So here is the thing about Wikipedia. According to their own website, Wikipedia has 683 million visitors annually reading over 10 million articles in 253 languages, comprising a combined total of over 1.74 billion words for all Wikipedias. The English Wikipedia edition passed the 2,000,000-article mark on 9/9/07, and as of May 1st, 2008 it had over 2,395,000 articles consisting of over 1,034,000,000 words.

Some would say that since Wikipedia has such a wide range of contributors it is one of the best sources of knowledge in the world. Oh yeah I say? Well I couldn't even find out how to skin a cat and eat it the other day. So in my mind, Wikipedia is still elementary. Elementary friends.
