No, enlighten me. I thought Wikipedia was generally more accurate than a print encyclopedia, and better written. My own experiences suggest this to be true (in areas where I am an 'expert').
Wikipedia ranges from excellent articles like you have found, to utter cr@p. It all depends on who contributes to an article, and when last the article was rewritten by someone with delusions of competence in the field. Some articles in areas in which I am knowledgeable are greatly lacking in rigor and accuracy.
