Wikipedia is very frustrating to people with expertise in a field, because Wikipedia places zero value on their expertise. Nothing in their experience base can be used unless it's already in print somewhere ... so how is their experience useful? I'm not calling into question the [[citation needed]] policy, but instead the idea that domain experts (professional, teachers, scientists) are needed to improve Wikipedia. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
