I love and generally trust Wikipedia. For subject where facts are easily checked (like the population of Canada) it trust it right off the bat. For other more obscure points (religious breakdown of Canada for example) I trust it but I check one or two of their sources related to my area of interest (always a good idea on any site). The only clear exceptions are living figures or controversial subjects. In those cases I consider Wikipedia a starting point not a final answer.
I use Wikipedia so often on this site I made a new
tag so I can make links to there faster.
