• One of my favorite topics, and a very difficult one at that. I personally handle things differently depending on the who/what/where of the content. Inaccuracies on the forums is one thing, and people are a bit more likely to read through the majority of comments on a forums post before deciding to follow advice. An article or newsletter from a major publishing site like SQL Server Central, or the competetors that is blatently wrong; Game On, because the editors should have done a better job before publishing incorrect content.

    Experience shows that fewer people read the comments on Articles than forums, especially when they have to click a Join the Discussion button to find the comments. Some really bad articles have pages of comments correcting wrong information, and the authors never fixed the article, which is possible to do, I've made changes to my own Articles on here when information changed with Service Packs, or through further understanding. Expecting that the Discussion forums for an Article will police your bad content is wrong thinking, and that's not targeted at SSC, but the community at large because it happens all over.
