Anyone can edit, which is why they are generally correct. When 100,000 people view a record, and 2 people want to change it to be incorrect, 999,998 will want to correct it. I wouldn't use a wiki as a great historical or technical source. But for encyclopedia entries, which give a good summation of a subject, they are great.
