Wikipedia finds faults with Britannica

ONLINE encyclopaedia Wikipedia feels that it is now so accurate it can pick holes in its rival, the Encyclopaedia Britannica.

A new wiki page has been opened where users are encouraged to find flaws in the mighty organ of knowledge.

Wiki geeks have managed to find some minor faults, such as the name at birth of Bill Clinton and the definition of NP problems in mathematics. But the page is full of "faults" the fake penis experts "think" might be false.

As anyone who has had anything to do with Wikipedia will tell you , what the Wikipedia experts think is inaccurate has a nasty habit of being completely true everywhere else in the universe other than Wikipedia. Its experts have also denied the existence of the Everywhere Girl, Fudzilla, the INQUIRER and Mike Magee. It also "accurately" claimed I was a Canadian boxer before becoming an IT journalist.

The slamming of the Encyclopaedia Britannica is particularly disingenuous as many Wikipedia pages are made up by cut and pasting the 1911 edition of Britannica because it is safely out of copyright.
