But if there’s a real American sequel to the Beijing Games, it’s the Republican Convention underway in St. Paul.

Philosophy Faculty Scholarship

A number of studies have assessed the reliability of entries in Wikipedia at specific times. One important difference between Wikipedia and traditional media, however, is the dynamic nature of its entries. An entry assessed today might be substantially extended or reworked tomorrow. This study paper assesses the frequency with which small, inaccurate changes are quickly corrected.
