Reply #2: What does 'infiltrate' mean in the case of Wikipedia?

[LeftishBrit]

Anyone can contribute a Wikipedia entry, from any point of view, right now. You or I could. No need for 'infiltration'.

How can they 'take over Wikipedia administrative structures to ensure these changes go either undetected or unchallenged'? It's not just administrators who can detect and reverse changes, errors, or biased reporting: it's anyone. If you or I don't like an article, we can edit it, or submit a new entry from a different point of view.

It's only common-sense to be aware that any given Wikipedia entry MAY have been contributed by someone with an agenda, and not to take what you read on Wikipedia as necessarily gospel, especially if it doesn't cite verifiable sources.
