Uncertainties and mystifications in Wikipedias global warming articles   Dear Encyclopaedia thanks a lot for your offer but I am afraid that it is one that I will have to refuse because it seems as a waste of time While I admire Wikipedia as an amazing resource that beats most classical encyclopedias on most topics global warming is a topic where it is being made irrational by activists  In the context of Wikipedia the most obvious activist who makes it impossible to keep balanced and accurate articles about the climate change its accuracy and the certainty or uncertainty of various statements is William M Connolley an official of the British Green Party The reason why one single activist became so powerful with the topic is that he was spending hours with edit wars on Wikipedia and cared about the topic so much that despite his obvious bias and lousy scientific credentials he became a kind of administrator on Wikipedia  It makes almost no sense for more qualified people than himself to try to improve the articles starting with global warming so that theyre more than mentally limited ideological booklets of the Green Party I have given up the desire to fix this segment of Wikipedia a long time ago and I am afraid that your request wont change anything about it Unfortunately similar control by incompetent and often downright dishonest people extends from Wikipedia to much more important institutions in the society so Wikipedias outrageous alarmist bias and misinformation about the climate is probably just the most innocent tip of this iceberg
