"On why Wikipedia is never finished..."
Great eds have little eds upon their backs to bite 'em,
And little eds have lesser eds, and so ad infinitum.
And the great eds themselves, in turn, have Admin eds to go on;
While these again have greater still, and greater still, and so on.
--- Augustus De Wales -- ( De Morgan, Augustus (1872). A Budget of Paradoxes. Longmans, Green, and Company. pp. 376-377.)

Please, beware: Proverbs 18:2
The plains-wanderer (Pedionomus torquatus) is a bird in the family Pedionomidae, of which it is the only surviving species. Endemic to Australia, its historical range included Victoria, New South Wales, South Australia and the Northern Territory, but in recent years it has become endangered, with remaining known populations concentrated in the Riverina (a region in southwestern New South Wales) and in western Queensland. The plains-wanderer is a quail-like ground bird, measuring 15 to 19 centimetres (5.9 to 7.5 in). The adult male is light brown above, with fawn-white underparts with black crescents. The adult female is substantially larger than the male, and has a distinctive white-spotted black collar. This female plains-wanderer was photographed in the Riverina, north of the town of Deniliquin, New South Wales. Photograph credit: John Harrison

"Users of Wikipedia do get to recognise which parts are shaky, but the unwise may suddenly stumble into benighted stretches, like some crinkum-crankum byway in old London, where footpads lurked and communicable diseases were offered at low prices."

The Daily Telegraph, how very accurate.
