<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Good point. Although not completely true, because
we also search for scientific articles and news sources. But like in this
example: it is often easier to find an online wikipedia description than a
online description from a scientific publication. That tells something
about accessibility of the information...</FONT></DIV>

From a scientific literature point of view, this demonstrates very nicely the
absurdity of how we deal with scientific literature: At the bottom, there is a
link to description, and the link goes to Wikipedia: This is fine in itself,
but it questions why we bother to go through writing scientific publications
describing species. You bother to have links to scientific names, and then in
the next section one on commons names: here you care, but you do not make the
same for species descriptions.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
