don't you think that the wiki page on Stephenie Meyer's is a little biased?

Question

i read her wiki page cause some one mentiond her name and i didnt know her i was curious who she was

Answer 1

well as wikipedia is written and edited by other people you should expect there to be a certain amount of bias to the information. then again you cant really expect people who write the article in Stephanie Meyer to remain neutral as in some way or antoher they will have their own opinion of her and may convey that across in the artical. however they can not overly criticize or praise her as it is supposed to be a factual encyclopedia, informing people about her so that others can make their own judgement so i think that while the majority of articles on wikipedia are as factual as can be, they wil always have some sort of of opinion on the matter that will be shown whether you can clearly see it at first or not.



ive read the twilight series and although i like the books, they arent the best that ive read. also though you may see that a lot of people dont like twilight, id have to say that many others do or else we wouldnt see the book as being such the success that it is.

Answer 2

Wiki is supposedly supposed to be unbiased, but when it is compiled together by people, odds are you are going to get shout outs from haters and lovers.



I really don't care for Twilight because of all the popularity and hype (as lame as it sounds) . Why do I need to read a whole entire book that I can summarize just by reading comments and questions and comics based on the book.



I am also a traditional vampire fan as well and while I believe that any writer can do whatever they wish in their world of fiction, I think that Meyer's should have stuck with the traditional vampire instead of creating a new form of vampire out of convenience. If it were a completely different world then I would be fine with it, but it is based in modern earth where vampires are typically (or were typically) stereotyped as 'Dracula' in dress and in mannerisms.



It's cool that her book is making people want to read more, but just all the hype about the stories and the characters has gotten a little out of control. Granted, it has gotten better over the past few weeks, but there is still a lot of Harry Potter vs. Twilight going on out there. While I have contributed fair amount to the debates, I am finding that more and more that it is just not worth the effort. What I say will not change any one's mind and all it will accomplish is just more conflict and drama.



So as of now, I guess you could say that I am indifferent to the books.

Answer 3

You have to understand, almost everything written on Wikipedia is biased and based on false info. But I will look it over. I read a small amount (to the end of "Twilight"), and it seemed that it was factual for once. Could you point out some quotes from there that are biased? I would gladly give my opinion on those.

Answer 4

If your not really into twilight then why were u reading her wiki page???
