I do think Wikipedia is something of a marvel of an online community. It's certainly got plenty of warts, but it's managed to remain broadly effective and focused on its mission. It's one of the last remaining vestiges of the open and free worldwide web that I grew up with in the 1990s, and that shaped my life as a tech professional. I will always appreciate its philosophy for free information and transparency, and I think there is a lot to learn from its ongoing success.
