Online reference site Wikipedia blames US Congress staff for partisan changes to a number of political biographies.
Computers traced to Capitol Hill removed unpalatable facts from articles on senators, while other entries were "vandalised", the site said. An inquiry was launched after staff for Democratic representative Marty Meehan admitted polishing his biography.

I think the "jokes" that have been played on Wikipedia over the past year have pretty much ruined it as any sort of a quality reference site. A pitty really.

Disagree. It's still largely highly accurate. The volume of content on there is just so high, and largely non contentious.
