We need to set up a regular mechanism which analyzes and searches for errors. Please see http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Error_management
We need to make a science of it, Wikipedia:Error_management
How would this system correct the obvious error in this article?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pro_hominem
Which has been there 3 years.
It's a simple error that most proof-readers would find. It looks right at first glance but is not. It is a type of error.
The obvious solution is to proof-read Wikipedia in a systemic way.
