If Hominids are just another word for “great apes”, then to say that humans evolved from a hominid but didn’t evolve from apes is being a bit disingenuous, don’t you think?
Please re-read the quote you posted. It does not say that humans evolved from hominids, it says that humans are hominids. Regardless of your beliefs (I'm a Christian creationist but do not believe in a "young earth"), that statement is true.
Yes, the wikipedia quote doesn’t say that humans evolved from hominids, but the evolutionist DO say that humans evolved from hominids. Then they say that it’s ludicrous to attribute to them the statement that humans evolved from apes. I’m saying, you can’t have it both ways.
