I agree that finding correct, accurate, current, and NPOV information

be a challenging task, and media literacy is an important skill these

And actually we are already at the stage where these skills become in
dispensable for anyone who wants to successfully contribute to
Wikipedia. With a very few exceptions (recent sporting results etc) all
low-hanging fruit is gone, and one needs to have access to digitized and
paper sources, have skills in understanding these sources, and often
have some language skills since many needed sources are not in English.
