- Comment on Wikipeter was the founder of the site in 1993 when he wanted to know more about model trains without having to visit the library 5 days ago:

Even if the pages on encyclopedia are maintained by respected authors, it’s not immediately obvious, and the information is likely surface level and not worth citing.

6 month lead time though.

Yeah the nerds usually find themselves in very powerful social circles if they survive school. Circles of emotionally mature experts with strong careers.
