There are plenty of reliable sources  available. Wikipedia is not one of them.

Wikipedia is pretty good for basic biographical information, book reviews, and information on the entertainment world. Other than that, everything else has to be taken with a grain of salt. The problem with Wikipedia is that anyone can contribute their two cents worth and anyone can change an entry to suit themselves. The old complaint about the internet, garbage in garbage out, certainly applies to Wikipedia.
