@Iksrog3 @jimmy_wales Malone DOES promote misinformation and NOT saying it is withholding critical information. Malone is 100% a quack and Wiki has been generous about him. — PolitiTweet.org

This said, Wikipedia has work to do in: + geopolitical issues: it naturally takes sides ag. minorities (say Levantine Christians, favoring Arabist & Arab fascist narratives given higher number of nonminority editors). + biographies of some pple outside of science & academia. — PolitiTweet.org

3) No, wikipedia is NOT a source for citations, and it has nothing to do w/reliability. 1) You cannot cite something that changes all the time, [even w/a timestamp], 2) By design an encyclopedia is not a reference and must direct you to the solid sources that YOU must use. — PolitiTweet.org
