Fatally Flawed: Refuting the Recent Study on Encyclopedic Accuracy by the Journal Nature
March 2006 response to a December 2005 report in Nature magazine "that claimed to compare the accuracy of the online Encyclopaedia Britannica with Wikipedia, the Internet database that allows anyone, regardless of knowledge or qualifications, to write and edit articles." The Nature report had found the difference in errors "was not particularly great." This report concludes that almost everything about Nature's investigation was wrong and misleading. Opens directly into a PDF. From Encyclopaedia Britannica.
