Trouble in the land of Wikipedia

Wikipedia, the online encyclopaedia compiled by computer users, is to stop people from editing entries after a series of questionable updates cast a shadow over its accuracy and reliability. Under plans being considered they will have to submit changes to a team of “trusted editors” who would then decide whether to update the entries.

The Vatican and Disney are examples of organisations who 'edit' Is nothing sacred!

Wikipedia was a wonderful idea and it did work the way it should have for quite a while...ah well...all good things seem to come to an end. It will never quite be the same.
