Hoi. Wikipedia is very much lacking in all areas.. What Wikipedia are you talking about; it is not the same situation on all Wikipedias.. On the English Wikipedia I would say that subjects to do with Africa, Asia and South America could use a lot of refinement. One topic I think is worrisome is the lack of a full picture for Iran. It really makes it easy to paint them as a villain when there is so little public knowledge about the people, the country and the culture.
The en.wikipedia is strong on Pokemon, when there is an invasion of these creatures we know all there is to know about them. :)
Thanks, GerardM

Could someone hazard a guess on which areas the Wikipedia is strong in, and which areas it is still lacking? FN

I do not have a problem with people using Wikipedia as a primary source for information. When it comes to certain topics, I would encourage it because I have confidence in our accuracy and wide coverage.
However, I would not encourage people to stake their fortune or their health on Wikipedia at all, and there are certain topics that I would discourage people from using Wikipedia as a primary source or in some cases even a secondary source for (pretty much anything related to Eastern Europe, all of which is still definitely a Work In Progress when it comes to POV).
