The Great Failure of Wikipedia

Posted 2 years ago by Evan Tishuk

"What Wikipedia has taught us now, is that in a vacuum of politics, politics will be created. There is no vacuum of politics. People who are encountering this space where they can not lord over others for technicalities and gain power for themselves will then proceed to invoke technicalities, take power from other people. They just do this. This is what human beings do." ~ Jason Scott at Notacon 3 in Cleveland, Ohio (April 8th, 2006)
