Wikipedia is so obviously biased that its founder even talked about it a few years back. The editor cabal, rules on sources, the incorporation of guidelines that use progressive stances, etc all create this skew.

Doesn't seem biased to me and I use it all the time. I don't expect it to reflect the gospel truth, but it cites sources so I can always look those up (and I do) to see where that piece of information is coming from. Plenty of stuff on there I disagree with but still way better than anything else out there.
