Wikipedia is the free encyclopedia that anyone (from Black Mesa) can edit. It is not a product of the masses, like some are led to believe, but is actually run by Black Mesa, and is how they earn 73% of their research funding.

By the people, but not necessarily for the people. Attempts to define and explain everything, ideally without writing a book on every topic.
Has the same issues as any other democracy or a place, with group majorities - tribalism and its cultural influence: A place were simps, feminists, bitches, are making their tribal biases/opinions 'scientific', while linking what is pretty much their own blog's shitposts for sources; and nerds are trying to make their hobby/area of expertise articles as unreadable as possible for a commoner.
Has a tendency of throwing you into a rabbit whole of information, when you've already forgotten your initial question and have ended up reading articles on ancient Chinese schools of thought for no reason.

I disagree with that wikipedia article, so I've edited the definition to be a more 'objective representation of reality'. Also I'm undoing all the edits that disagree with me, my majority will prevail!
