Yes, science does change and evolve as we learn more. However, we don't throw the baby out with the bath water. Just because it was wrong about a small portion of some theory, doesn't mean the whole theory was wrong.

It included the Nebraska man and several other hoaxes perpetrated by the Evolutionary scientific community. Those hoaxes were started by "Scientists". granted many of those were also proven false and removed by the scientific community, but the fact remains many of them were taught as a part of the evolutionary chain in our schools. Some were hailed as Missing Links.
As I'm sure you know, Nebraska Man was never fully accepted by the scientific community, and the proposed new species was retracted in about 5 years.
Scientists and researches depend upon governmental and private funding to continue their research. That alone introduces biases to research and greater chances for fraud and false/created data.
You can see this in Climate Change, just to name one area of science. The two biggest scientific areas of fraud has been in evolution and Pharmaceutical research for these very reasons.
Here are a couple of links discussing scientific fraud:

In the second link there is an article about Duke University being sued for millions because of fraudulent data. The scientific community tries to guard against it, but it is still out there and not as uncommon as many would like to believe. Our problem today is colleges have taught their students that science is incorruptable and should be trusted in all things.

In the early 1900's the Model T was a marvel of innovation. We've since built upon that. But, mass produced vehicles are still great.
I don't know what your links are supposed to prove. Nobody claims science in infallible or that there's no corruption in any part of it. But, I'll trust real science over myths and "I just feel it in my heart" any day.
