Wikipedia at times section off subjects, which I can only presume that they restore the original document from the server and possibly have a small team to comb through the original and the edited document and make the necessary changes to correct the updated original document.

opps, you misinterpreted what i said. Don't get me wrong i use wikipedia quite often, i meant that ANYONE shouldn't be able to edit it just like that. Still that is just my opinoin. I respect yours.:) and remember what i said earlier, to me peolpe who are angry at somthing tend to go to wkikpedia to miss use something there like saying you (cap'n'1time) suck or somthing of the sort.

I still disagree... well, sort of. While it would be awesome if we had 100% accurate super genius robots writing wikipedia articles that isnt going to happen no matter what. It's hard to find enough people who would donate so much time on topics they have little or no interest of to such a project with no pay. I do think it would help if citations were always required and approved BEFORE the article goes public.
