And She Said...

Remember the study that claimed that Wikipedia and the Encyclopedia Britannica had roughly the same error rates, and the detailed refutation that Britannica published in response?  Well, Nature has decided to fight back.  That science journal published the original study, and has now revealed that it was a blinded study – reviewers did not know which entries came from Britannica and which from Wikipedia.  Perhaps Britannica’s wisest response might have been none at all.
