<p>[QUOTE=&quot;+VGO.DVCKS, post: 4657125, member: 110504&quot;]Thanks, Jamesicus --and Claudivs, who replied before this was finished; what Wiki is good for (besides pop culture, for which it&#039;s a nearly inexhaustible resource), ...<i>and</i> on a good day, is the occasional reference that you can cite with a straight face.&nbsp; --Even then, it&#039;s about the references cited <i>in</i> any given entry.</p><p>One reason I continue to live in amazement at the pitch of erudition that you can find on this forum is the sheer, statistical paucity of the same phenomenon on Wiki.&nbsp; There, it&#039;s always a joy when you look something up (in my case, mostly out of sloth), and get Real People writing Real Entries about things relating to ancient and medieval history.&nbsp; Wiki is really, Really all over the map in that regard.&nbsp; But, especially in contrast to here, the exceptions run to being thin on the ground.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
