well ... this is why page creation by anonymous users is not so bad ...

And why it is impossible that Encyclopedia britannica needs to proof and 
reproof each single word it writes

http://www.golem.de/0512/42221.html

"both" encyclopeadias - this means even that one that according to our 
infos needs to proof every single word - has the same amout of critical 
errors in the same articles only in different places ... - hmmmmm .....

considering that Encyclopedia Britannica is 237 years old and Wikipedia 
only 5 .... hmmmmm ....

(sorry I don't have time to translate this article - maybe there's an 
English one around as well???)

Well I suppose it is time to go "back to ordinary" functioning of 
Wikipedia (anonymous users can create articles - this is even easier to 
check to my opinion - just switch off all registered users and have 
special regard to anonymous page creations).

Ciao, Sabine
