Will, I would agree that Google is not perfect. However, in this case, the blame cannot be solely on Google. Wikipedia's use of placeholder pages to encourage contribution within its community is highlighting a "bad data in, bad data out" issue.
Based on Google's PageRank algorithm, Wikipedia naturally ranks high due to the number of links into it. Google then views Wikipedia as an authoritative source. Not perfect, but in most cases, pretty darn good. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
