Wikipedia, and other web-sites with community contributed content, are not responsible (nor should they be) for the contributions of their users (at least in the US).
Mostly, but not entirely, correct. OSPs, presumably including Wikipedia, are not responsible for third-party contributions that are not intellectual property violations. Copyright violations, or defamation by the principals of Wikipedia, are not covered by the CDA safe harbor. DLB Dan L.

Hi Folks, I'm working on Videogames right now. I'm trying to understand the evolution of this application here in Spain. I'm finding some interesting things looking at the user profiles. I would like to know if you have stats of this topic in other countries. I mean stats of use... or studies of this topic.

You question might be best addressed to the Digital Games Research Association list: GAMESNETWORK@uta.fi. There is some cross over with this list but certainly more people that might know game stats over there. For either list it might be worth defining what you mean by video games: all games played on computing devices (so including the card game bundled with windows, online triva, mobile phone games), just PC and Console games, just console games. I say this as you will get widely different numbers depending on your scope e.g. one hears that the majority of online gamers are females over 40 - this does not mean that most Warcraft players are in this category (though some are). ren www.renreynolds.com (there are links to some sources of data on my site here: http://www.ren-reynolds.com/links.htm#Market) terranova.blogs.com On 14 Dec 2005, at 10:41, Fernando Garrido wrote:
