| Aug 21, 2016 at 21:01 | comment | added | Hi-Angel | @Zacharee1 that depends. Canonical is more canonical because information is likely to appear there first, and then someone adds it to Wiki. But on the other hand, Canonical's pages could have too much marketing bullshit (though note: I'm saying from a general experience of *any* companies' sites), then Wikipedia is better, because it holds a cleared information about a topic. | |

| Aug 18, 2016 at 0:16 | comment | added | edwinksl | @AndreaLazzarotto Oh well, I guess we all have different opinions on this. :D | |
| Aug 17, 2016 at 23:56 | comment | added | Andrea Lazzarotto | Meanwhile, the suggested edit got approved. | |
| Aug 17, 2016 at 23:42 | comment | added | Andrea Lazzarotto | OK then I guess I am not the only one sharing this opinion. :) | |
| Aug 17, 2016 at 23:20 | comment | added | edwinksl | The Wikipedia links in this particular edit look redundant to me. Why should "Ubuntu 14.04" point to a Wikipedia page instead of a Canonical page? There are no good reasons why Wikipedia should be considered the canonical source of information for the hardware in this edit/post. | |
