This is because they have a robust review process, which Wikipedia doesn't. Enough said.
Please robustly define "glaring".
Glaring means obvious, in plain view, manifest etc. I gave some examples here http://wikipediocracy.com/2014/02/23/islands-of-sanity/
One example:"It can be speculated that one of the first people in Europe who consulted the map was William Vorilong, noted philosopher from England, who was shown the map while travelling with japanese visitor Yoshimitsu Kage." William was French, not English. And he never visited Japan.
Please also understand if I don't accept you as an impartial source
on the matter rendering your subjective judgements of limited value.
They are not subjective judgments, see above. 'Glaring' /= 'subjective'. Why don't you accept me as an impartial source? Because I have written articles critical of Wikipedia? Oh right.
Some of these problems can be fixed. But fixing problems means recognising there is a problem, no?
