“Wikipedia is the best thing ever. Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject so you know you are getting the best possible information”

Simplified Meaning:
Wikipedia is a website where anyone can write about any topic. This makes it a place where you can find a lot of information on many different subjects. However, because anyone can edit it, sometimes the details might not be completely right. Imagine a library where every visitor can add or change the books. Some people might write very good and accurate chapters, while others might not. So, while Wikipedia has a lot of useful information, it’s always good to check other sources to make sure the information is correct. For example, if you read an article about history on Wikipedia, you might also want to look at a couple of history books or trusted websites to confirm the details.
