Join us as we learn why referencing Wikipedia might not be such a bad idea. We speak to Omer Benjakob @omerbenj, Jonathan Sobel @JonathanSobel1 & Rona Aviram @rona_av who have been investigating the scientific backbone of Wikipedia pages and how referencing on Wikipedia has changed over the COVID-19 pandemic. We discuss how Wikipedia manages to reliably keep up to date with a constantly evolving topic, could this be applied to a social media format to prevent disinformation and could Wikipedia be a great way to engage the general population in science?
