Never before has the knowledge of [[:Category:Human|mankind]] been available to so many [[:Category:People|people]] around the [[:Category:Earth|world]]. But nothing is perfect, not even Wikipedia. As soon as we leave the realm of simple facts and look at controversial topics - be it in [[:Category:Politics|politics]], [[:Category:Medicine|medicine]], [[:Category:Science|science]], [[:Category:History|history]] or [[:Category:Philosophy|philosophy]] - we find many articles that are clearly one-sided, sometimes also deliberately defamatory of people or positions. Here, Wikipedia is not used to provide information about clear facts, but to convey the [[:Category:Point of view|opinion]] of certain groups in the cloak of information. That shouldn't be the purpose of a platform like Wikipedia, of course, but it still happens over and over again. | ||
The experience of many attempts has shown that this cannot be changed in the short term, because those who run Wikipedia and have the last word on the articles enforce such prejudices, for reasons about which we can only speculate. As far as I have been able to determine, these [[:Category:Wikis with a strong viewpoint|controversial topics]], which are treated in a very one-sided manner, include various branches of alternative [[:Category:Medicine|medicine]], divergent political views, and alternative or [[:Category:Spirituality|spiritual]] world-views, to the [[:Category:Biographies|biographies]] of those who hold such views be perceived. However, since Wikipedia is not just one website of many, but has the power to interpret information and interpretations for many millions of people, this creates a serious problem. And the more the fewer sources outside of the internet are used by the majority. Now that Wikipedia is what it is, the only way to deal with this growing problem is to build an alternative that offers a way to post dissenting views on such controversial subjects without the authority of the great internet [[:Category:Encyclopedia|encyclopaedia]] in to question the areas where it really excels. | The experience of many attempts has shown that this cannot be changed in the short term, because those who run Wikipedia and have the last word on the articles enforce such prejudices, for reasons about which we can only speculate.
