Wikipedia is "The Man"

Do the problems that are created with Wikipedia outweigh the problems that it solves? There have been a controlling group that has evolved among the wiki-editors much like most open-source projects...but is Wikipedia's praise premature...who's history should be qualified as absolute...the most well documented, or the most true? Historically, its always been the people with the biggest pocket-books that get the history set in stone...(ie. l'Hospital's rule, he didn't discover it just had the biggest pocket book, History of American Civil Rights, The Jewish Holocaust, The Biafran War...) is it now the people with the most computer knowledge? Will Wikipedia ever be considered concrete fact?
