I am a physicist. Why would you say that?

Scientists have opinions, just like everyone else. They're quite likely
to incorporate their opinions in the Wiki, rather just the facts.
Restricting input to scientists won't avoid errors; it'll just get you a
better class of error.

For example, how many planets are there in the solar system? (My
preferred answer is 15, but you can make a case for all sorts of
numbers.)

When it comes to biologists you'll find all sorts of disagreements on
taxonomy.

When it comes to taxonomy, there are no agreements. ;-)

Cheers, Phred.
