Comment:

 Or an even more careful look reveals that Sloane starts at n=0 - my bad.
 So there is an inconsistency in the definitions.  Sloane's sequences agree
 with jhpalmieri, while Sage agrees with Wikipedia.

 I'm ccing: the author of multifactorial in Sage, who will hopefully weigh
 in on what definition is okay.
