Baker’s article on Wikipedia was a little interesting but it had some information that I already knew. It was interesting to know that some people actually stayed up all day and night looking at their articles to make sure it doesn’t get edited. These “editors” want their article to be what they want but other “editors” prevent that from happening. Some of the article was boring because it talked about how people put a bunch of nonsense, biased or ignorant information in several articles. I already knew this because many people, including myself, didn’t trust Wikipedia because of its editing option. Many people didn’t believe the things that were written in several articles. But over several years Wikipedia has improved by making sure silly ignorant information aren’t posted in over the 2.2 million articles. This is why many people are now relying on Wikipedia these days. Even I use Wikipedia more than I used to. This is all thanks to groups Baker listed to prevent such information from being posted and also the employees of Wikipedia. But the information posted in Wikipedia doesn’t stay forever. This is why Baker uses the reference “Deletopedia.” Baker uses this reference because many people all over the world are deleting old posts and are posting new information. This is one of the major disadvantages of Wikipedia. If one used information from an article and wanted to use it again, it may not be there and it could be changed causing confusion. Baker’s reference for Wikipedia shouldn’t be “Deletopedia” but “Editopedia” because of all the editing that occurs in this encyclopedia.
