> Wikipedia is hardly what I would call "reliable". Many people claim that many Wikis are bad. I disagree, it's a lexicon that is much better than most, if not all reputable printed lexica. If you find a bad Wiki, please correct it, make it better.
A few Wikis are not only much better than reputable printed lexica, they are very good, they are at least at a higher academic standard. All non-fiction has got weak points, you'll find people writing things like "The Lies And Fallacies Of The Encyclopedia Britanica". Reading an article of a lexicon can't impart what 30 years of studying a field does teach, but Wikis or something similar should be good enough for semantics formation. I don't care about how anybody of us defines "sysadmin" or about "levels" of administering, so I don't know this Wiki. Since Jerry has got doubts about Wiki articles, I wonder that Jerry does quote Wikis too: http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2013/09/msg00204.html So it might be better to disagree about the interpretation of a Wiki, but not about the generell reliability of Wikis. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
