Wikipedia by Baker

I use Wikipedia at least once a month. I know it is not the most recommended site to visit as far as retrieving correct information. People edit statements on Wikipedia all the time, stating what they enter on the page is true. Users compete to edit information, and that is why some paragraphs are not easily read between their lines. Baker said “Wikipedia was the point of convergence for the self-taught and the expensively educated”. It’s either: you are what others would call a  ‘know-it-all’, or an actual, certified professional historian. People always try to outsmart others, so it gets more confusing as far as who is reliable or dishonest.
