I occasionally use Wikipedia (on the order of once a month). It’s usually for technical or historical information (i.e. Kalman filters, geologic eras, astronomy, etc.). I don’t even consider it for controversial or political topics. Like anything from the media, their major bias is not in what they say, it’s in what they omit.

“their major bias is not in what they say, it’s in what they omit”

Good catch—that is exactly how they play.

They also tend to rely on official government and mass media sources that are known liars.

If you fact check a known liar by using another known liar all you do is end up with a lie claimed to be a fact.
