You'll always find some 1x1x1x1Is100PerCeNTbAcK account, or someone who has the "1x1x1x1 story" in their blurb, or someone who puts their friends' name in their version of what happened on 4/1/12. Honestly, there's a lot of edits I've seen that make me want to facepalm.

The big issue with having a wiki where a lot of the editors are younger (compared to something like nuclear physics wikia) is that many editors might not necessarily know how to write objectively and use good evidence/resources to back up anything that might be said in the wiki. For instance, I could say that 1x1x1x1 is a hoax created by the ROBLOX developers and then prove it by including a reference that links to MrDoomBringer's thread explaining 1x1x1x1. In contrast, I could say 1x1x1x1 is a scary hacker who brings doom to ROBLOX (very subjective claims, unless I say something like many robloxians believe that 1x1x1x1 is a scary hacker...) and include no references to back up my claims (which of the two sentences would a reader be more likely to believe?).

Then again, I might be weird. My nursing professors would cut off my head if I were to document anything subjectively.
