Many Wikipedia entries are solidly reported and written. But not so for many of the online encyclopedia's science articles, John Timmer writes: "They suggest that quantum mechanics is completely impenetrable. That evolutionary biology is just a bunch of jargon. That math involves little more than a bunch of random stipulations. More generally, they indicate that it's something that has to be left to the experts and is inaccessible to anyone without arcane knowledge."
