Fantastic, but how do you control this? How do you keep bias from creeping in?
I suppose they can have a strict set of guidelines that keep opinion out, and writing must be fact based from original sources (not someone's interpretation of what happened). Maybe some sort of transparent review board to challenge from both left and right if the info is fact based?

Good. We need alternatives views than wiki.

People can google or search for encyclopedia articles or plain old news articles. Or even just click the source links in Wikipedia articles.

I actually use Wikipedia a lot. I don't trust it a bit for accurate in depth info but as a quick "Where do I know that name from" it's very convenient. I'm more than willing to roll with Elon though.

I 100% made that suggestion somewhere on this board in the recent past (maybe as far back as the Spring). Maybe not the name, but that Elon do it.
I'm glad that my lazy, half-assed suggestions to save the world are making it to folks who can actually get it done.

America thanks you for your vision.

Just finished listening to Larry Sanger (co-creator of Wikipedia and no longer affiliated with Wikipedia) on Tucker Carlson. I learned that 85% of Wikipedia’s editors are anonymous…just writing history and pretending to be unbiased and fact-based but anonymous. Also, you should hear the approved list of sources vs. the blacklisted sources. New York Times is approved. The Federalist is blacklisted just for example.

If Wikipedia didn’t exist, then the information you’re searching for would still be there. Wikipedia is simply compiled from information that is already on the web with a communist slant..
I don’t think anyone would miss Wikipedia if it went away today.

Wikipedia is worse than any of the major networks relative to disinformation.
Posted on 9/30/25 at 9:39 am to John Barron
Grok uses the same biased sources Wikipedia does. Don’t see how this turns out any differently.
Posted on 9/30/25 at 9:52 am to John Barron
Does anyone else use Grok. It is bias in the beginning, but after you argue with it for a while it will admit some truths

I use it a lot. You are right about it having bias but it is because of the sources it draws on mostly. You can ask questions with prompts to avoid some of it. I have the paid version and am able to train it so it doesn't repeat some of the BS in subsequent sessions.
One thing it was doing was capitalizing black and not white when describing races.

Excellent!

Many people lack the critical thinking to dig on their own, or too lazy, or the info search isn’t worth the time to deep dive yourself.
It should be un-biased. This needs changing & also for things posted online about someone that isn’t true or can be a smear without having any real proof.
I have a friend that happened to and it’s a nightmare and he still haven’t been able to clear the BS

Good. Ask Grok to formulate an opinion of MTG and another opinion of Ilhan Omar.
Now go over to Wiki and look up the pages on both.
Here's what it starts off with on Omar:
quote:
Ilhan Abdullahi Omar (born October 4, 1982) is an American politician serving as the U.S. representative for Minnesota's 5th congressional district since 2019. She is a member of the Democratic Party. Before her election to Congress, Omar served in the Minnesota House of Representatives from 2017 to 2019, representing part of Minneapolis. Her congressional district includes all of Minneapolis and some of its first-ring suburbs.
Now, here's how it starts on MTG:
quote:
Marjorie Taylor Greene (née Taylor; born May 27, 1974), also known as MTG,[1] is an American far-right[2] politician, businesswoman, and conspiracy theorist[3] who has been the U.S. representative for Georgia's 14th congressional district since 2021.[4] A member of the Republican Party, she was elected to Congress in 2020 following the retirement of Republican incumbent Tom Graves and was reelected in 2022[5] and 2024.[6]
Wiki is toxic, cancerous, blatantly biased and another cog in the disinformation psyop of the Narrative Control Apparatus. See it for exactly what it is above.
