I hope this message is not OT and forgive my ignorance but I received a
very informative response to some of my questions and several people
recommended that I make better use of everyones time by first going to
Wikipedia. The messages were more or less as follows:
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi_core for more information
So, I am being told by some to use wikipedia as a credible reference for
technical questions.
It is my understanding that use of wikipedia may subject the reader to
faulty information. There were several blurbs in the news and in news
letters that very clearly indicated a "user beware" warning. Also,
there was recently an internal conflict between several individuals
working at wikipedia and the conflict was over the growing content some
of which was mis-information and in one case submitted by someone using
false credentials.
So, I became very cautious about wikipedia although there seems to be a
lot of "sound" information. I have seen a lot of references to
wikipedia from the Debian lists to lists that are science oriented and
mathematically oriented. Does anyone know what the real facts are on
wikipedia. Are all the news items I have read on this subject just
garbage??? I collect hundreds of news reports every day and all of them
are credible and responsibly written. I obtained my information via
these news reports. So, what's going on here???
Thanks, Ted
