Wikipedia isn’t reliable but is more useful than Community notes at least presently.
CN lacks prompts for what to look for next to make information complete and trustworthy. It merely provides trust inclination limited to whether a particular post requires further independent fact checking or not.
On other hand Wikipedia even when universally considered not so reliable offers powerful and quicker first landing for search outcome when looking for any useful information independently. It breaks out structure from where one can further search cross references to reach reliable tools like academic and technical resources which may provide trusted information one looked for in very first place.
Wikipedia offers self research which CN lacks as it is mere addendum to someone’s post, not what you may have wanted to know yourself.
