What I think is funny about this whole article and this email thread is that the quality of Wikipedia is not brought into relation with anything else. For example, I know that one of the main causes of death in the Netherlands today has to do with improper dosages of medicine, caused both by failure to follow instructions in the medical information accompanying pharmaceuticals and by mistakes in that medical information.
Wikipedia may be full of mistakes, but so is the "official" medical information offered to doctors and patients. 2014-05-28 20:03 GMT+02:00, Cristian Consonni <kikkocrist...@gmail.com>: > 2014-05-28 7:42 GMT+02:00 Nurunnaby Chowdhury <n...@nhasive.com>: >> Thanks everyone.
