It seems to be just growing and growing. Could it be better? How? Have you experienced any problems with the system or the content?

i love it.
but i do wish they had a contact number or email for questions and suggestions. they didn't the last time i looked.
For instance, LOSTPEDIA is a Wiki (about LOST - the TV show) that is still small enough that ALL of it could be read. but there is no way to start at the beginning and read through it - to make sure i have all the info. I would like a "read from start to finish" feature. Also, i would like to be able to search on new additions/changes by date or by topic.
A Problem - not exactly -
but Wikipedia was cited in something i was reading, and that reference was not in the article that existed when i looked. I think it was just that the page had been edited, as opposed to a bad link.
so maybe people referencing any Wiki should put a date on the reference.

Hmmm, I think the main problem with Wikipedia for me is that I don't know if I can completely trust it's content or not. Anybody that signs up on Wikipedia can change whatever they like, so that kind of makes me wonder if the info on that Andrew Jackson page I did a report on was totally bogus or not...=)

Frankly speaking, the idea that anyone can change the information may mean that the information provided may not be true. If someone can check the authenticity of the information, maybe it will be better. However, if manpower is required, wikipedia may charge a fee for this.
