Wikipedia No Longer Requires Citations as it has Reached 51% Accuracy Becoming the Ultimate Source of Truth

Wikipedia, the free online encyclopedia that anyone can edit, announced today that it will no longer require sources for its articles, as it has achieved a 51% accuracy rate, making it the ultimate source of truth on the internet.

The announcement came after a rigorous study conducted by Wikipedia itself, which compared its articles with other sources of information, such as books, newspapers, academic journals, and Bing search results. The study found that Wikipedia was correct in 51% of the cases, while the other sources were only correct in 49% of the cases.

“We are proud to announce that Wikipedia has reached a milestone in its history: we are now the most reliable source of information on the web,” said Jimmy Wales, the founder of Wikipedia. “We have proven that collective wisdom is superior to individual expertise, and that anyone can contribute to the advancement of human knowledge.”

Wales added that Wikipedia will no longer require sources for its articles, as they are unnecessary and cumbersome. “Sources are a relic of the past, when information was scarce and unreliable. Now, we have Wikipedia, which is abundant and trustworthy. We don’t need to cite sources anymore, because we are the source.”

Wales also said that Wikipedia will remove all existing sources from its articles, as they are misleading and distracting. “Sources only confuse our readers, who might think that there are other opinions or facts out there. We want to provide our readers with a clear and consistent view of the world, based on Wikipedia’s consensus.”

Wales concluded his announcement by urging everyone to join Wikipedia and contribute to its growth. “Wikipedia is not only an encyclopedia, but a movement. A movement to create a world where everyone can access and share the sum of all human knowledge. A world where Wikipedia is the ultimate source of truth.”
