They use to tell us we couldnt trust Wikipedia. Now we know. Wikipedia is the only website you can trust.
(self.showerthoughts)
A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Yeah, I agree with this. I work at a high end engineering company, and some engineers have gotten into trouble using things like materials properties that they got from Wikipedia and turned out to be wrong, with unfortunate results. By policy, if we don't know something like that we're supposed to ask our tech library to get us the information, and that's why.
Why not fix theses pages?
They get fixed, but that doesn't prevent someone from using erroneous information on the next one. Just one bad number can be a big deal.
