Wikipedia
Because Wikipedia is an ongoing work to which, in principle,
anybody can contribute, it differs from a paper-based reference
source in important ways. In particular, older articles tend to be
more comprehensive and balanced, while newer articles more
frequently contain significant misinformation, unencyclopedic
content, or vandalism. Users need to be aware of this to obtain
valid information and avoid misinformation that has been recently
added and not yet removed
