I never thought I’d be defending the wiki-nazis, but actually, it’s their uber pedantic natures that keep Wiki mostly valid as a source of information. Alas, there are still a-holes who deliberately change entries and blank sections, but that’s not necessarily the fault of all the wikidiots.
Much as I love Her Maj, and despite all its faults, Wiki has provided a great service to the world, more than even a great cartoon ever could. Such sour grapes are unworthy of a royal personage.
wikipedia provides a service. Whether it is a great service, is still very much a matter of opinion. I have seen enough inaccurate and/or incomplete information therein that I don’t trust its data enough to use it as a reference for anything vital… unlike, I regret to say, most of my students.

As an occasional Wiki contributor myself, I think today’s strip is hilarious.

There ya go. You can go there for actors who committed suicide. Just search by “cause of death”. Love that site.
