Hoi, In the Netherlands water is an essential ingredient to our country. It is a friend and it is an enemy. Where I live we are 3 meters below sea level. The Rhine streams down after including all the effluent from Germany and Switzerland. We do swim in the Rhine, it is clean enough for the WWF to free sturgeons so that we may have them come and breed in the future. We use its water and process it to drinking water.
Yes, shit happens and we can deal with that.
Your attempt at rhetorical questions is suspect because you do not see that quality / purity in water is like with Wikidata a process. It is not in doing it once. It is done by doing it again and again. That is why the water is clean and iteratively we will what we ingress and make it the quality that we will not get in any other way, Thanks, GerardM

Simply if I have a litre of sewage and add to it 100ml of pure water, I still have sewage. Conversely if I have a a litre of pure water and pour in 100ml of sewage into it then what do I have?
What if 2 out of 10 bank statements are erroneous is that OK because 8 are accurate?
What if ever 2 out of 10 gas stations delivered Gasoline from the Diesel pump?

Surely this isn't some exam paper where you get an 80% passing mark. What you have is a basket of eggs ... 20% of which are poisonous. _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org <mailto:Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org> Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:wikimedia-l-request@lists.wikimedia.org <mailto:wikimedia-l-request@lists.wikimedia.org>?subject=unsubscribe>
