Is there are strong case for having Wikipedia in Skynet?

[mikkokotila]

I have been thinking about this. The reliability of information is very poor, articles are often heavily polarized, absolute statements are made using garbage citations, articles are fiercely defended, contests are win by knowing how to refer to endless wikipedia "policies" as opposed to actually having the ability to structure a strong case, they openly embrace hostility towards alternative views...etc. etc. etc.

I would like to challenge the meaningfulness of including Wikipedia on Skynet.

Can we discuss this, or if there is no strong case, I think that makes the case for dropping it. Maybe instead just take empty media wiki and train communities to use it to create the encyclopedic information relevant to the community, and then later think about inter-community possibilities.

Here are couple of alternatives to consider as part of this discussion.
