Wow. Here is what I assume to be an ultratraditionalist Catholic web site and author, actually subjecting the Church's beloved "deuterocanon" to the same irreverent historical criticism it has so long inflicted on the Torah.

I can't say "unbelievable," because it is so obviously believable.

To be clear, is your position that the Wisdom of Solomon was actually written by Solomon?

irreverent historical criticism

I'm pretty sure that rabbis for the last 2k years have considered Wisdom to be of late (= long after Solomon) composition (not composed in Hebrew as far as we know, no evidence that it was written before the death of the last prophet, etc.), which is why it isn't in the Tanakh.
