Anyone can edit Wikipedia anonymously, which is why it can be an unreliable source of information about cults

Recently, Buzz Feed listed the top ten cults at Wikipedia, but is the website a reliable source of information?

Probably not, based upon its disclaimer.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:General_disclaimer

Buzz Feed says, “These 21 Wikipedia Pages About Cults Are So Dark, You’ll Need To Prove You’re An Adult To Visit Them.”

But you may never know who actually edited these pages. In some situations, Wikipedia has been edited by cult members specifically seeking to slant and skew entries.
