I used to use the (un)mentioned 'encyclopædia' frequently, but over time, I noticed something; In this age of 'contributing', i.e., doing the work, such sites as W'pedia (and sadly, IMDb) have become 'home' to people who don't understand simple English grammar rules. Some don't understand what simple English words are, yet, instead of doing a little research, they plod ahead. They're more interested in doing as much as possible - writing as many reviews, articles, so they can - in a pathetic sense, build a name for themselves. If this sounds like 'nitpicking', it's not. It's much closer to someone saying to someone who's going too run errands for you (and you're depending on) to get several price quotes on a major job, and to pick up your very fussy partner's favourite chocolate. When this person you counted in returns, they've engaged for someone to do the major job - and forgetting how much it'll be, and instead of the chocolate they came home with cashews. If the person doing the work doesn't understand the basics, they're only going to 'contribute' garbage, and some of these 'names' (a very small percent do most of this 'writing', yet, their own CV, their background of why they are a good candidate to do this is nowhere to be found). The result is much of what's their (and not just in W'pedia, IMDb, but any of these sites which are mostly contributed writing) is garbage, and anytime who goes to such a place is at risk of not leaning, but mis-learning. In the case of W'pedia, an 'encyclopedia's nothing more than a basic source of information. It's not - as some of these semi-literates think, a place to write an entire novel on a subject (or steal someone else's published material). It's not - in more esoteric subjects, a place to write in high-level mathematics, nor in computer languages, nor anything else. It's simply a starting point for the reader. The READER's the most important part, NOT the ego of some fool 'writer'. Another - huge - problem is that many of these so-called frequent contributors don't even know basic English grammar. I'm not trying to sound 'snobbish', but there's simple grammar we all follow (when I mentioned this once in a 'talk' page this very idea, and that there should be some sort of 'gate' to let people who - as an example - use 'filler-words, constantly, such as 'however', and 'basically', I was called out... told by some idiot I was 'mean', and worse. This... person, as many other simpletons don't get, i

This app looked like it had a lot of potential When I open the app and look something up, it pulls up a page that says “No internet available. Tap to retry”. I have an strong wifi internet connection and a strong cellular data connection but it is not working. Please fix this.
