"Fun" with wikipedia (and Jason Statham)

So, saw a brief preview of the upcoming move Safe with Jason Statham (Fifthfiend should be happy), and I decided to check it out.

As it turns out, it seems that someone had fun with the wikipedia article (third sentence under "plot").

Even provided a citation for it!*

Anyway, this, boys and girls, is why Wikipedia isn't a viable source for your research papers.

So... anyone here have some sort of editor status and wanna change that?

Alternatively: discuss - does wikipedia need more trolls/does it count as a viable source?

You should watch this trailer! It's awesome! (The rest of the site's really cool, too!) I have a small announcement to make. And another!
