Do you think the era of Wikipedia is over?

[esotericstory]

In the past I relied on it a lot but nowadays I am more and more often referring to alternative places for information. A LOT of Wikipedia's sources are 404'd. I don't consider it a sustainable place for getting information.

I have not noticed that issue (besides, there's archives). Furthermore, just add new sources, then.

For the topics I like Wikipedia isn't generally the go-to source, but it often will do in a pinch and it still remains a great starting point.

[newPython]

that's because you are too cheap to donate the 3 dollars they request for keeping the site viable

[esotericstory]

Wikipedia is the only site in existence that runs on donations only. Time for a change in policy I think.

I apologize for my rude reply.

[esotericstory]

I use it a lot.
Why is it 404'd? (Don't get that?)

Seems like just some source (links) are just old then?
I think Wikipedia is still a good site.
I think it might be hard to make another one that is as large as Wikipedia is.

I rarely need it. I use other sources. But if I just need a quick check on something, wiki is easy.

I used it a lot in HS but not anymore

[LegateLanius]

I agree.

I still like it.
