How do Wikipedia pages get written?

1.04K views

Wikipedia is notorious for having unreliable information. But it seems like most of the info is verifiable, and very little is marked in red. Pages are also usually decently written and almost always offer quick and effective summaries on a huge array of topics.

Does Wikipedia employ fact-checkers and editors? What is the process of a page being written and finalized?

A red link in Wikipedia means that the article does not yet exist; someone put that link there in hope that someone will write it someday (making a reasonable assumption about the title of that future article).
