From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

I think it is wise counsel not to trust any source completely, including Wikipedia. We want our readers to be skeptical. I am surprised how much people actually do trust Wikipedia per this survey. We must also keep in mind that both the formally peer reviewed literature and textbooks may contain errors. For example a major medical textbook from the Oxford University Press was recently caught copying and pasting from Wikipedia.en:Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2015-02-25/Op-ed The amazing thing is that they changed the references so that the new references no longer supported the text. So they not only copied our text but made it worse while doing so.
