Foxipedia

Remember how I said you shouldn't source Wikipedia? Well here's another reason. Fox News likes to edit it.

Ha!

Know what? Even with Fox News spinning Wikipedia as fast and as hard as they can, it's still oodles more accurate than the average creationist site.

When they know there's a problem, Wikipedia administrators work fast. This identified address has already been banned for three months for the POV-pushing edits. Of course, this still shows how Wikipedia isn't always going to be reliable. Personally, I prefer to use it as a starting point for learning about a subject, then going to the sources it references for more accurate information and any citations I need. Oh, and it's also fun to screw with people who base an argument off a single sentence in Wikipedia by changing it.

Weel, it does help when one of the Wikipedia administrators reads this blog =)
