Based on observations and prior experience (esp. Bitzi), I believe the wiki approach of "correct-in-place" leads to better convergence and community than "downvote the errors, add a corrected entry, upvote the better entry".

(Voting democracy may help prevent people from being oppressed in certain ways, but it isn't much of a truth-discovery mechanism.)
