I get this with wikipedia articles. I have to force myself to click through the links provided and check the reliability of the sources. They’re usually fine, but every once in awhile you find something questionable snuck in there.
No, if I’m on wikipedia for something, I never really feel confident enough in my own knowledge to actually do anything significant. I just mentally mark the article as questionable as I read.
And when I know something well, I’m never looking at its wikipedia entry. lol

do you correct or mark it as incorrect then? Because I usually never go for the sources hoping people did it for me… yeah I’m a lazy ignorant
