Wikipedia Is Too Fast - Mamata Banerjee Already Chief Minister?

We know Wikipedia is the biggest and the best online encyclopedia edited and maintained by volunteers all over the world! But, do you want to see how fast they work- here is an example? The counting of votes of Assembly Election 2011 was finished in the afternoon of May 13, 2011 and it became clear that Trinamool Congress and Congress alliance is going to rule West Bengal this time! Note, Mamata Banerjee is not the chief Minister of West Bengal still. I checked the Wikipedia article on Mamata Banerjee on 14th May, 2.50 PM and found there Mamata Banerjee is already declared as the Chief Minister of West Bengal. Here is the screenshot! (Hope you will not be able to see the screenshot properly here. so press to see the image in a new tab!)












Undoubtedly Mamata Banerjee is our Chief Minister now! But, I am talking about Wikipedia editors here. They are too fast - is not it? Anyway, you can read the full Wikipedia Article on Mamata Banerjee here!

  1. I know am commenting a year later, but the word used is 'CM elect'. There is nothing wrong in the article...
