Things you like and dislike about Wikipedia

Do you have an account on Wikipedia? If you do, list the things you like about it and the things you dislike. Also, what are the types of articles you like to edit?

For me, I just like to edit articles while putting in reliable references. That is all I currently do on Wikipedia. It's fun, though!

But I don't like it when other users undo my edits even when I put reliable references. I just put my edits back in. Also, vandalism is annoying, too.

And the articles I like to edit are articles on cities and towns.

What about you?

Am I the only one who goes on Wikipedia in these forums?

i had an account,but i got banned for some reason...btw i can't really think of something that i HATE about wikipedia..

I have corrected one very small spelling mistake. I like that there are so many languages, and that the English Wikipedia has almost 3,000,000 articles. One thing that I don't like is that there are so few Spanish language articles, which I find to be surprising.

The internet doesn't seem to want me to access that website. Pages load at painfully sluggish rates even when my ISP isn't being mentally disabled.

I love everything about Wikipedia, mostly the fact that such a project exists in the first place. Wikipedia changed the internet landscape really. Among with the search engines, is the best aspect of what the internet has to offer to the people. I can't think of anything that I hate about Wikipedia. Perhaps the fact only that I envy those people who write the articles, and most often they do it amazingly well, and so I think how useless I am myself :D

I have an account too, but I never dared to write something new, or make an edit yet. I know that I must be really proficient in a certain subject to make that step, and I doubt if I will ever make it.

Like: It has pretty good info that is usually correct.

Dislike: The stuff that is usually correct can easily be changed by other people.

i like everything about wiki

Dislikes: Its somewhat unrealiable as a solid source of data. Likes: The accesibility of it.BiancaDK

Took the words out my mouth.

Wikipedia is an awesome way to kill time. ^__^

i love the pure wikiness.

I don't like how in school they don't accept Wikipedia as a reliable source.
