Outside of that, for factual information if I'm going to look for solid info and the wiki is missing source information, I mostly ignore it.

If quotes aren't cited or glaringly at the top, states needs cleaning up or sources, what I mean, it cannot be the only source of use. If I want to learn about history, it's useful. It's not, the end all and be all. In conjunction, with other sources, it's reliable.
I guess, to OP, to have people citing wiki as why they are correct and OP is wrong? Honestly, what's up with people?
To have a scientific paper published, the source list need be as long as the paper for credibility.
Credibility. ..there's the word. How credible is the wiki page being used?
I'd probably pull it, on my phone, at that point. Verify references and nod in agreement or make room for intellectual discussion. 😉
