While I think it's a modern wonder of the world, I am skeptical of health topics on Wikiepdia - I read a lot about the positive benefits of Ashwaghanda in scientific journals, seriously I could go and find 20 studies right now. However, Wikipedia says "there is insufficient evidence that it is safe or effective for treating any disease". That's just wrong. I'm guessing if I made a change, it would be reverted by one of those super editors who "own" that page.

That would be a good example of a controversial scientific topic. If there is still money on the line with competing ideas, different persons or groups of interest will try to manipulate the information to their favor. What is sacrificed in the process is the strive for factual information and the scientific process.
