If you are accepting Wikipedia as a source, no matter what side you are on...you are accepting non-vetted information. As a teacher, you would allow someone to use Wikipedia as a source? Esp. for politically oriented material? That's intellectually shallow & possibly fraudulent.

Wikipedia is not a source that anyone should use seriously for any sort of factual basis. It gets corrected...then it gets uncorrected. "Crowd sourcing" for political information isn't a way to determine what is right. Non-political...check the references and follow them.

Great! Can we now correct the record regarding the Access Hollywood tape being HYPERBOLE and NOT admitting SEXUAL ASSAULT??? This is kind of a big one that needs correction.

In this case, yes, it is correct. Right now. The question then becomes "for how long" before someone edits it? That's the issue with Wikipedia. Yes, it can correct, but it can also alter. Which is why it is not acceptable as a source, even if it is corrected.

I think someone has already edited Wikipedia. Unless I’m looking at the wrong entry? Because I don’t see any reference to “condemned totally” on the “Unite The Right Rally” entry... what’s more, the page is locked from editing, “to prevent vandalism.”
-
Yep. Locking the page is indicative of one of the problems with crowdsourcing information.
