Wikibooks and Quality
Did I hear anything about quality? Peer review? Facts? Oh, facts ... oh, reliability ... oh well, if anybody can say anything about whatever then anybody can misrepresent, twist, misinterpret. How many crappy books are there with authors who would rather rant and distort than engage in rational discourse. Maybe there could be categories such as "Science as a Matter of Preference", or "History Without Checking the Facts". Just because it's in (virtual) black and white, it doesn't have to be true.
