its only shit if you use it as a source/citation, which it is not a SOURCE at all. academia does not allow wikipedia to be cited. you can use the links it provides to actual sources, or you can search it yourself.
its most severely data-deficient and outdated on plant/animal diversity/phylogentics. because people arnt spending time skimming or reading recent science papers and adding to the site.
