About Wikipedia

Wikipedia does not contain the truth. ("The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth.") I disagree with many of the things that are stated in Wikipedia, but I do not feel compelled — much less entitled — to change them.

Articles in Wikipedia, at their best, reflect the general state of human knowledge, or in other words, what most qualified people are saying these days.

I reserve the right to believe that most people are wrong about some things. But I do not have the right to make my opinion prevail in Wikipedia.
