Two comments, important one first.
================
Important: Wikipedia really has become accepted by the establishment. I have seen decision makers, at the table, with Wikipedia open during tumor board. I have seen staff physicians showing patients information and even reading up on side effects and mechanism of action. I have seen a dean ask a presenter to pull up the wikipedia page on a cutting edge test, in the middle of a discussion about whether to bring in said test.
================
Usual, unimportant wikipedia banter: I edit almost exclusively in biological sciences and almost never run into edit wars. The one time I did, I tried to start the article on DigitalOcean, and it quickly boiled over into an extremely dissatisfying experience. It makes the DMV look efficient and cordial.
