W9. Do you think Wikipedia is reliable? why or why not? / Jung Jisoo
1. Summary
Whenever I edit Wikipedia, take a class, or read Wikipedia-related resources in Syllabus, I often think about whether Wikipedia is reliable. First of all, my thoughts seem to be different depending on what kind of article it is. The reason is the reliability of the cited data. If the cited material is reliable, I think the Wikipedia material is reliable. However, I think it is difficult to trust if the source is unclear or if it is biased to one side. So, if the source is clear, I can trust it and use it as a reference for my assignments.
And I think an article like 'Wikipedia: List of hoaxes on Wikipedia' will help to improve the credibility of Wikipedia. This is because I think that more hoaxes data can be found by organizing hoaxes and analyzing their characteristics.
