Do you really take the pains to edit wikipedia if you have something to add to?

I have never taken the time to edit wikipedia. I think if I did come across some information that I could improve on or add to, I would definitely do it. I have yet to find something that is not already there on wikipedia, but i will from now on. Thanks for the good discussion topic.

most of the time they know what i have,so i try not to waste my time on editing.but i do read through the contents of wikipedia,as it usually contains useful information which i can pass onto my fellow mylotters.

i am not using wikipedia when i am serching for school, the teachers knows it that its from wikipedia. .. i use ebscohost, most schools trust ebscohost.. although ebscohost needs a password, some sites like us librarys post the passowrd for the site, so that students can search more accurately.. i have'nt edited something in wikipedia, even though there are alot of errors... i got no time to that. we are discourage in school to use it, since the information can be easily be edited.. i just use wikipedia for reading purpose or when i want to search for something, that is not for school.

I sometimes edit pages if some information I know is correct is incorrect on the website but this is rare. I also tried adding pictures too and included what I thought was correct licences, but those were removed.

I've thought of that many many times! But I am not really sure what happens with the copyright! For example, many times I was looking for scientific info at wiki, but I couldn't find what I was looking for...I did think to add info from my books, it wouldn' t be a problem to me, but even if I use the source as reference, I am not sure if I am allowed to copy word by word the content of the book and expose it on wikipedia!

Yes I have edited and added information in wikipedia. I always wanted to add more information wherever possible.

I did once, because I knew there was some incorrect information and I knew where the right information could be found. And I figured few people would either a) know the correct answer or b) bother to change it. I haven't done it again because I haven't encountered any articles that could be improved by my editing.

upto now i didn;t edit anything in wikipedia. if i have any information more than in their site, i can give there. for so many topics, the information is less ,or sometime there will be no information at all.

Till now I haven't added anything eventhough I might have known more.Defenitely it helps other users if we add something which we know.
