Wired Story

For the week of the 14th one of our assignments was to read an article entitled "Wired Story." It is an article based on Wikipedia: a free internet encyclopedia, that can be changed by whomever. And the objective to this assignment is to answer the question: Will Wikipedia ever be a valid source? The answer to this is no.

The story was based on a Wikipedia page about an e-voting machine vendor called Diebold. The page had 15 deleted paragraphs, all of which were deleted by their own corporate office. For the fact that people can edit any information about the subject, causes this sources credibility to no longer exists. This in my opinion shows that Wikipedia will never be a valid source of information.
