I decided to lookup some history of my local area, and i was reading a whole page until i noticed some things didnt add up. It was stating some obscure things such as it (the local place) has it’s own currency and whatnot.
I decided to check the sources they used, and i noticed it was some stupid wiki page made by Grok.
Sure i can’t fact chek all of it, small point’s were correct but for crying out loud. Please.
Wikipedia has been abused for literal decades. People will just make up sources to cite and hope nobody notices. That’s why the first thing they teach you (or taught, not been in school for a while), is to never use wikipedia as a source. Local libraries, local newspapers and, funny enough, pubs (always some old guy who knows everything and will have books n shit). Check those places out.
“A wiki page” is not necessarily Wikipedia.
Fair enough
