Comment on Is it dumb to create a wiki in this day and age?

Similar to what others said my main thought is how to have unbiased moderation of the content. Since anyone can edit anyone can try to spin their own story instead of reflecting the true idea of the website. If there is moderation to prevent any bias on either side and only allow for the data that viewers can draw their own viewpoint on, would be great but sounds like it would rely on a lot of people to help moderate the bias.

I do not know a lot about how wikiapedia operates as far as their moderation. It seems it’s gotten so big that any topic with more than 1 person interested in it will have people editing out bad content.

With the more niche wikis out there most the people who have interest in them are interested in keeping it honest.

With politics your bringing in a wide demographic with a lot more room for people trying to spin their own narrative.
