Quote by: Lullaby Chainer  How is that much different than Mr. John Doe setting up a science website and providing information? Just about everything on the internet can be argued against with this line of reasoning.. you don't need any qualifications to post information on the internet. |
No, there is a great deal of information on the internet that cannot be posted by just anyone, and that is properly cited, peer-reviewed material. Almost all scientific journals have websites, for example.
Furthermore, there is a large amount of material that comes straight from the source - for example, a Wikipedia article discussing how to fill out a tax form is inherently not as strong a source as the actual IRS instructions on how to fill out a tax form.
