"wiki needs to take responsibility for this, too."

I wholeheartedly disagree! Everyone knows that wikipedia is openly edited information.
Aside from that, all changes are moderated by others, and the false information was removed as it should have been.
What is more, it is wikipedia's tracking of editing, including IP addresses, that has made it transparent.

Legally speaking, Wikipedia is a "Service Provider". They are not a publisher. The content on the site is authored by participants, which makes wikipedia a conduit.
