NEXUS WIKI CAN BE WRONG

Nexus Wiki is an encyclopedia on the Internet that is edited by anyone who wants to help. The way it works means that anyone with who can view the Internet can change what is written. When you read Wikipedia, you should remember that we cannot make sure that our information is checked by people who can make it complete, accurate or reliable.

That does not mean that there is not useful, correct information in Nexus Wiki; there is lots. However, Nexus Wiki cannot make sure the information here is correct. Any article may have been changed or vandalized by someone who thinks they know what is correct, but is not aware of the current facts of the topics they are writing about.

No system of checks by experts

We are developing ways to find versions of articles which are more correct, and show them to our readers. The people who help make Nexus Wiki use up-to-date lists like the Special:Recentchanges and Special:Newpages to watch new and changing pages. However, Nexus Wiki is not all checked by experts. Although readers might correct errors and some experts may check some articles, they do not have a duty to make changes. So, just because we have information here, this does not mean that we think it is all true, or useful for anything you want to do with it. We are not promising you that it is correct. Before you think that something might be correct, remember that all articles might have been badly changed to be wrong just before you see them, even ones that had - before - been checked by experts or chosen as very good articles.

None of the editors, sponsors or administrators of Nexus Wiki, or anyone else connected with Nexus Wiki in any way at all can be responsible (their fault) for any information that is not correct. It is also not their fault if you use any of the information which is either at Nexus Wiki, or information on a page somewhere else which we have a web link to.
