Wikipedia:Best not Perfect
Essay on editing Wikipedia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
What I don't like about the way most Wikipedians talk is how they act like how Wikipedia should be perfect. We are only using the information we have about the subject we may be talking about on Wikipedia.
This is an essay. It contains the advice or opinions of one or more Wikipedia contributors. This page is not an encyclopedia article or a Wikipedia policy, as it has not been reviewed by the community. |
| This page in a nutshell: If you make a flaw, don't panic! |
But shouldn't we at least try to be perfect?
Yes we should, but don't act like you have to get to it perfect, just try your best. No one is perfect, like someone could make a vandal and not know it is a vandal.
It could be argued that acting like you have to be perfect enforces this unofficial rule. It is kinda true, however, you got to know that you can't ever be perfect. Even if you make a major flaw you shouldn't panic.
