Wikipedia is supposed to be the on-line encyclopedia for everyone, but what it has become is something entirely different: an early and illustrative warning of the collapse from informed social networking to propaganda. If you just enter “global warming” in google the first result you get points to the Wikipedia entry Connolley controls - and if you just wanted a two minute briefing on the subject you’d never know that the article is utterly and relentlessly dishonest.

This should surprise no regular followers of this blog, including its master. Just try putting something on Obama’s page referring to his running on the New Party (which was a socialist party) ticket - it’s a documented fact, but it’d be gone in 5 seconds, if it showed at all. I thought we’d been through this, about Wikipedia.
