Wikipedia

Is it usable? I was inspired to do this by an argument taking place on another thread, but anyway. I am talking about the general wikapedia, not wikimon, bulbapedia, wiki-oh or any of the others. Just plain old wikipedia.

For Digimon stuff - stay clear and this is just one of the reasons:
It claims that Digimon NEXT is to be released in English by Tokyopop in 2008 when Tokyopop don't know screw all about it!

I think it gives ample information when I just wanna know something on the surface. But once I search for further information, it's crap.

I like it, but for some articles about lesser-known stuff (like Kingdom of Paradise) it doesn't tell you much that isn't obvious.

 

[The Sixth Kakorat]

For well-known topics, I find it pretty much reliable. But for things that are 'obscure', most, if any, edits that are debatable are left up.

 

[MugenSeiRyuu]

For stuff like Digimon it sucks.

Come on, if you edit something, some jerk will set it back before you edited it, saying that you need a source. Yet crappy claims like the existence of Renomon ( a male Renamon ) and DarkGatomon ( with the Power of Hentai ) don´t need sources.

It shall be destroyed and replaced with a better Wikipedia !

I use it for real stuff <_< History, Biology and Geography. I haven't really been "into" anime since high school, but even then I could find better sources for information on it than Wiki.
I'm with Kakorat on this one, I think.

I hate it when I want to know about a movie/book/anime/game/etc. THE SPOILERS ARE RIGHT THERE OMG.

*cough* Yes.

But for other stuff (schoolish stuff) it's my #1 starting point.

 

[Magna]

Yeah, spoilers there can be a problem, but I find it reliable enough for me, especially useful when it links to other resources, and like Greg said, I find it as a perfect starting point

 

[MugenSeiRyuu]

A Starting point, but nothing more.

 

[Tcatomon]

lol. Of course there's going to be spoilers.. it tells about the subject. XD It's not a forum to go *OMG SPOILERS AHEAD* .. which you should know full and well ahead of time there's going to be that.

 

[Magna]

I know, but on some articles it says something about spoilers in the the following paragraph/ section, but in others it doesn't ^^;

Wikipedia's beautiful when it comes to general knowledge. But for cult-ish stuff, visiting a forum related to it is a much better idea. So I'll go with option 2 on this one.
