After watching this video on the possibilty of a brighter, more pleasant world through Wikipedia, I felt compelled to contribute to this Wikiality. It was time to check the Wikipedia page on Arnold Schwarzenegger (again). And while I'm used to the Dutch version of any wiki page being a strange incomplete translation, I was shocked to see a very important fact missing in the English version.
But now thanks to my swift editing, everybody in the world knows Arnold Schwarzenegger won the campaigner of the year award in this year's European of the year election, organised by the European Voice. And while everybody knows he should have won the European of the year award, I understand it would be a little weird making an American Governor European of the year.
With this problem solved, I can trust Wikipedia again, and my students can go back to using Wikipedia as a source for all kinds of information to get some extra credit.
