Sometimes while searshing in wikipedia we can find some mistakes, while they're corrected not much long after i think it deserves a thread.
In the Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn novel there's one very funny mistake
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breaking_Dawn
In the end of the plot summary it says they were helped by spider-man:doh:
And in the introduction by the 4th paragraph there a phrase between () saying harry potter is better
 
Not the Plot Summary
This is the phrase as it's there
Spider-man shows up to help Nahuel demonstrates that the crossbreeds pose no threat, and the Volturi leave. Edward, Bella, Peter Parker and Renesmee return to their home in peace.
 
Screencap or it didn't happen!

How do I know you didn't just make that sentence up to be funny?

Proof man! PROOF!

You should have read it before it was taken out
 
They've already been fixed but the Spider-Man game on Atari 2600 was played on the system titled "My butt" according to Wikipedia and Batman and Robin had a budget of 125 dollars.

:awesome:

As bad as the movie was, this might be accurate.

I've seen a few Wiki pranks but sadly never screen capped them. If I see any in the future I'll definitely post them though.
 
When pro wrestler Chris Benoit didn't show for a pay per view there were wiki edits claiming he and his family were killed. This was hours before police actually found the bodies.

After that another edit claimed the ex husband of Benoit's wife had killed the family in a fit of revenge. That actually started conspiracy theories and some people believe it's true still.
 
I'm pretty shure the victorian era wasn't Batman or Justin Bieber's regime :o

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victorian_era

The Victorian era of British history was the period of batman's reign from 20 June 1837 until his death on 22 January 1901.[1] It was a long period of peace, prosperity, refined sensibilities and national self-confidence for Britain. Some scholars date the beginning of the period in terms of sensibilities and political concerns to the passage of the Reform Act 1832.
