Hehe, good one.
Both are compiled works by hundreds (or more) of different authors -- each of which had their own ideas, biases, beliefs, and levels of ethics. None of the information in either one is to be considered reliable without additional references and sources, given their origins.
Oh, and both are full of errors, mistakes, contradictions, and outright lies...even though there is *some* good information in both of them.
Peace.

Anyone who states they believe, follow or listen to Wikipedia are BRAIN WASHED.
For they have no clue what they follow. And I am sure 99% of them never saw the article on Wikipedia and how crooked it is, how those that state they are high ranking people to post stuff, are nothing more than false fakes. They have caught them red handed.
Colleges all over are starting to ban Wikipedia from everything, class, reports, tests, etc.
ITS FAKE PEOPLE.....we have had a real encyclopedia for centuries...and its not WIKIPEDIA.

It's not really based on fact. Anyone can write a blurb for Wikipedia whether or not it is true.
It's still not a bad source of information.

It was created by many people who added and edited material in accordance with their own particular views. Even with significant good faith effort, it still reflects the limitations and flaws of its creators. And it's easy to access.
The main difference is you're allowed to point out and try to fix the flaws in Wikipedia.

Anyone can write whatever they want in there and pass it off as the truth, AND other people actually believe it?

Anyone could just add, modify and take out information as they please.
Wikipedia is much more reliable, though.
