The Tiberius Show

How reliable is Wikipedia, really? Today Tiberius sits down with Lane Rasberry, a professional Wikimedian-in-Residence at the University of Virginia, to unpack how articles are written, fact-checked, and kept up to date across 300+ languages. Lane shares why he started (yep, as a mischievous student!), how conflicts between editors get resolved, and what makes Wikipedia different from old-school paper encyclopedias. We dig into AI’s role, online civility, libraries vs. the internet, and even do a fun Math Corners segment modeling traffic spikes when a pop star drops a surprise album.What you’ll learn•    How Wikipedia’s community fact-checking really works•    Why sources matter more than “experts” on-wiki•    Differences between Wikipedia and printed encyclopedias•    Handling editor disputes with empathy and process•    Where AI helps (and where it worries Lane)•    Why teens absolutely can start editing—safely and smartly•    Math Corners: modeling a 7-day pageview surge after a surprise album dropBecome a
