The major points of criticism of Wikipedia, an online encyclopedia, are the claims that the principle of being open for editing by everyone makes Wikipedia unauthoritative and unreliable (see Reliability of Wikipedia), that it exhibits systemic bias, and that its group dynamics hinder its goals. The Seigenthaler and Essjay incidents caused criticism of Wikipedia's reliability and usefulness as a reference.
