AFTER SOME 2,550 EDITS, THIS EDITOR HAS LOST ALL BELIEF IN THE TRUSTWORTHINESS OF WIKIPEDIA, AN ENCYCLOPEDIA WHERE DISREGARD FOR THE TRUTH PREVAILS.

AS A REGULAR USER, WILL HENCEFORTH REGARD MOST WIKIPEDIA ARTICLES WITH SUSPICION, OR AT LEAST, WITH CAUTION.

ACCORDINGLY, EDITING OF ARTICLES HAS STOPPED INDEFINITELY, UP TO WHEN SOME HOPE RETURNS THAT IT CAN BE TRUSTED -IF EVER.

MAIN REASON: WP:Verifiability, WHICH I DO NOT AGREE WITH AND NEVER WILL. TO ME, TRUTH IS OF PARAMOUNT IMPORTANCE, FAR ABOVE "VERIFIABILITY"(*). IT IS A PITY WIKIPEDIA FOUNDERS AND POLICYMAKERS DO NOT BELIEVE THAT.

(*) A million houseflies will "verify" that "excrement is delicious", but is that true?

As matters stand now (2010), Wikipedia's slogan could well be:

WIKIPEDIA, THE ENCYCLOPEDIA THAT CANNOT BE TRUSTED.

"THERE IS NO RELIGION HIGHER THAN TRUTH."

-Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (The Secret Doctrine, Vol. II)
