A few of the entries that directly relate to Buddhism; e.g. Nirvana, Dharma, Bodhisattva, Dalai Lama, etc. are well-done, while most are too brief or superficial. Perhaps the entry ‘The Miracles of the Buddha’ is indicative of most of those directly related to Buddhism. It has only one reference to the Tipitaka and no actual quotations. It makes no mention of the earliest, the early and the later traditions but lumps them all together as if they were all equally authoritative and valid. It casually confuses ‘popular tradition’ with scriptural teaching. It does not explain the Buddha’s attitude to the subject in full. At its best it is a superficial overview, and at its worst incorrect.
I’m right with there with Ven. Dhammika. The current state of Buddhism Wikipedia pages is so bad that I’m not even willing to begin to want to try to fix them up. One of the chief problems is that many of the current contributors clearly lack even a basic understanding of what Wikipedia is about. I’m hoping other Buddhists out there will be both ambitious and educated enough to take this project on.
