The main reason Misplaced Pages is so unreliable as a resource and badly written is not the drive-by vandalism or joke edits by IP editors but because so many of the regular account-holders and content editors are basically ignorant about the topics they contribute to and have no idea how to read and research topics or to construct readable, coherent, concise and genuinely impartial encyclopedic content.
This is meant to be an encyclopedia rather than a place to tell the world about either how great or how terrible you think a particular political ideology, artistic endeavour, individual or nation is. Too many people can't tell the difference and often seem to think that a page here can only be "neutral" if it happens to tally with the way that they see the world and will only be "properly sourced" when it relies on sources and commentary favourable to that worldview.
If you think it's painful reading WP pages, try editing them.
