AFTER SOME 2,550 EDITS, THIS EDITOR HAS LOST ALL BELIEF IN THE TRUSTWORTHINESS OF WIKIPEDIA, AN ENCYCLOPEDIA WHERE DISREGARD FOR THE TRUTH PREVAILS.

AS A REGULAR USER, WILL HENCEFORTH REGARD MOST WIKIPEDIA ARTICLES WITH SUSPICION, OR AT LEAST, WITH CAUTION.

ACCORDINGLY, EDITING OF ARTICLES HAS STOPPED INDEFINITELY, UP TO WHEN SOME HOPE RETURNS THAT IT CAN BE TRUSTED -IF EVER.

REASONS: THIS DISAPPOINTING DISCUSSION AND WP:Verifiability, WHICH I DO NOT AGREE WITH AND NEVER WILL. TO ME, TRUTH IS OF PARAMOUNT IMPORTANCE, FAR ABOVE VERIFIABILITY. IT IS A PITY WIKIPEDIA FOUNDERS DO NOT BELIEVE THAT.

As matters stand now (2009), Wikipedia's slogan could well be: WIKIPEDIA, THE ENCYCLOPEDIA THAT CANNOT BE TRUSTED.
