Ingat sa Wikipedia

I've seen US partisans, as well as yellow partisans, doggedly at disinformation propaganda work at Wikipedia--from the VFA to Andres Bonifacio entries.

For controversial entries, ingat sa Wikipedia. Link on the references to go directly to the sources to verify.

A US hacker's homemade program to pinpoint origins of Wikipedia edits indicates that alterations to the popular online encyclopedia have come from the CIA and the Vatican. -

  1. "A computer belonging to Reuters news service is listed as adding "mass murderer" to a Wikipedia description of Bush."

    this one's most factual edit, though.

  2. encyclopedias' including wikipedia, tend to be viewed as not as politically colored as mainstream media. so wikipedia entries that distort/belittle the supremo, for example (pag natapatan bec. may pro/authoritative na nagbabantay din) tend to be more dangerous.
