This guy was unusual among journalists, he actually poked around under the hood to see how the "community" "operates". But he did NOT look into the past ugly history of Israel-Palestine battles on WP, and failed to notice that pro-Israel extremists practically dominated it for the first 10 years of its existence. EVERYONE is fighting to bias WP content. It goes back and forth.

Plus....."When it comes to Packers history, Wikipedia is like a book full of April Fool's jokes." Coulda told them that. WP is boiling over with sports trivia, plus plenty of errors and unseen vandalism.

Finally, someone did a study of "orphan" articles. "The EPFL team is continuing to collaborate with researchers at the Wikimedia Foundation", o rly? What makes them think the WMF will do anything about the problem? They never did before!
