Wikipedia is one of the most reliable sources of public information

Yeah if you're looking up wood joints and math theorems. Not if you're trying to learn anything about politics or history that ties into the interests of the systems and institutions that filter the media allowed as valid citations.

You need to provide actual evidence that the source is untrustworthy
