In areas where I have specialist knowledge, Wikipedia is at least as

Yes, well; in a couple of areas where I have definite knowledge of
things that happened, it's bloody wrong. I tried correcting them a
couple of times, but it always got reverted by some effing know-all.


The article on "horse behavior" is pretty poor - there are
numerous gaps, inaccuracies, outdated ideas, perpetuated myths,
and it isn't well referenced. I would overhaul it if I had the
time, but I don't.
