As opposed to what f.c./p.r./e. processes elsewhere in the publishing world?
In Wikipedia there are far more eyeballs looking for problems, and if
occasionally fixes actually make things worse, the *net* effect, reinforced
by such things as the neutral point-of-view norm, is towards greater
accuracy and freedom from bias.
It's like the maxim on designing your own cryptographic system that
cryptographers use: only do that if you trust no one and your abilities
are second to none.
