It was mourned for centuries as the crushing defeat of Christendom in the Balkans and the battle which forced Christians in the Balkans to submit to the Ottomans and Wikipedia claims it was “a draw”.
That’s certainly not the way Serb nationalists have traditionally viewed it.
I once claimed that the French first popularized the modern drinking straw, and would often signal an end to their meals by shoving one up each nostril, like a walrus.
I was unable to find a cite for my claims, and somebody deleted it within 20 minutes.
I first noticed this during the Oscar telecasts; despite pointing it out in the Discussion section, the phony actor names are all still there, except for the 1950’s movies I edited, at which point I said “fuck it, let the next slob fix the rest”. More than a month later and I’m still waiting, despite dozens of other edits in the meanwhile.
What is it that’s so wrong? I can’t tell. There is a table showing Academy Award ceremony dates and the Hosts for the awards. The column on the right (Hosts) is supposed to be the Masters of Cermony for that particular award ceremony, not actors in the movie that was the Best Picture winner. Or am I totally confused?
Yes, but encyclopedia’s with reliable editors aren’t at the mercy of activists with axes to grind.
Moreover, most encyclopedia’s at least have some regulations to control the quality of their sources.
Wikipedia certainly doesn’t and that’s why it’s utter shit when it comes to just about any remotely controversial topic.
There’s a reason high school teachers and college professors usually forbid it being used as a cite, which is not necessarily the case with more reliable encyclopedias.
