I agree with the TS...

Sad that so many of you use Wik as a source of info and not entertainment.

Good for you...now why is this in the Heavyweights?

What a lot of people seem to forget, is that Wikipedia requires citations/sources for all content. If you dispute the validity of something written, check its source. Wikipedia is a good starting point for lots of good information, though if you want to use its information to write a paper, you should use the original sources that wikipedia cites directly, and NOT wikipedia itself.

For the purposes of internet bullshit (such as Sherdog), as long as the article has credible sources, i see no problem with using it. No one is going to run to the library and start searching through microfilm just to argue a point on the internet. You and TS fail.
