Wikipedia and CPL 2.0

Wikipedia is the reference worker's best friend. When you don't know much - or anything - about a topic, Wikipedia will usually get you started and point you in the right direction for further research.

However, like many a best friend, it's a know-it-all that is sometimes wrong. No problem. There is a whole circle of other friends that love to point out the wrong-headed errors and make corrections.

I had to look no further than the CPL entry in Wikipedia to find a small grammatical error to correct and a start-class article that could be easily augmented with an additional paragraph.
