Ah, Wikipedia. The sum-of-all-knowledge for people looking to meet a deadline or become an expert on a wide domain of knowledge in the span of one awkward elevator ride. For all the jests and jokes made about it, Wikipedia has gone to great lengths to slowly, steadily do away with its old reputation for unreliability, eroding its earlier image as the wild, wild west of encyclopedias.
