I just would like to point out that Wikipedia isn't as unreliable as everybody thinks it is. I've read several websites that have compared it to actual "official" published encyclopedias, and they have pretty much the exact same accuracy. And I believe this, because it's not as easy to post random information as everybody thinks. You HAVE to have a source if you want to change more than a few words, and it's like somebody checks an edited post IMMEDIATELY. (Okay, not always immediately, lol. But probably within an hour or so?) They can see what was edited and who edited it. If they find there is no source to go along with it, or if it sounds kinda "eeehhhh...," then they change it back to the previous version and inform you of why it can't be changed (because they log everybody's IP). You can't even add a picture without exact copyright information.
Even encyclopedias you find in book stores and libraries will have at least one mistake in them. After all, both they and Wikipedia are edited by humans, and we aren't perfect, of course. So don't be so negative, guys! I'm sure somebody was just mistaken on her blood type (they weren't trying to vandalize her or anything..), and whoever reviewed the edited blood type wasn't quite sure about it, either, and they just forgot about it and let it go, because...honestly, it's not that important, right? It's not like somebody messed up her discography page, saying she sold a million copies with her debut, "LOVE PUNCH".
Not really, we have lots of examples of vandalized pages, and I doubt they check listed sources everytime, + sources are not essential, I saw many articles with info tagget as "source wasn't listed yet"
But in this case I really think it's just mistype or smth
