Much like any encyclopaedic endeavour, Wikipedia.org has the best of intentions. Ití¢â‚¬â„¢s the peopleí¢â‚¬â„¢s resource, edited by people for other people to debate over. This isní¢â‚¬â„¢t necessarily a bad thing, as it forces readers to re-evaluate and question the accuracy of the facts they are presented with. No matter how solid the information seems, nothing found in Wikipedia is beyond dispute. Just sign up for an account and you too can have a say in defining the world around you í¢â‚¬“ though you will probably find yourself battling with other devoted users.
