Objective claims to factual knowledge are really just democratic consensus, if the world agrees, it's true.

Reminds me of something....

The accuracy of Wikipedia is no less than the web as a whole, and in some ways better. However, now Google searches inevitably turn up Wikipedia (and Amazon), and dozens of sites that are no more than parasites on these two as most of the top 20-30 for most searches.
