Does this remind you of Wikipedia? (2014 - Epic)

The ending, and how "EPIC" works, reminds me of how many (if not most) Wikipedia articles are written: biased, even if accurate, with poor bibliography and clueless editors.

Is there a solution to this? Is Wikipedia, in spite of its good intention, doomed? If so, why?

Thats a great story there. Matrixey if you will. I can see how this is going to happen if at all. With a the blogs and all of the so called "independent" resources out there.... I mean just imagine if a site like InfoWars.com infiltrated EPIC in the future.

Wiki is a pretty nice tool, but I would not rely on it 100%

Thanks for the link..... the embed did not work for me

Very cool, thanks for the share. I realize wikipedia has some articles that blur the line between fact and fiction, but I thought those have disclaimers, and they certianly don't seem to be a majority of the articles on the site. I do, however, see this trend happening. I know facebook is not the biggest ithing in the scheme of things, but look at their changes, especially this last one they made. An elimination of privacy at the trade of ease of use and bringing the user a wealth of information.
