The difference is that, in this mailing list, trolls sign the
messages, so it's easy to spot them after 2 weeks. OTOH, Wikipedia
edits are harder to spot. I always suggest that you look at the
_history_ of any Wikipedia article. If the article is stable, then
it's probably reliable. If it has suffered many anonymous edits ("IPs"),
then go back to before the vandalism. And always do a "diff" of
two recent versions.
