Of course Wikipedia isn't perfect, but it is overall more factually accurate than any encyclopedia, newspaper, or magazine I've heard of. There have been studies (and several people have written their masters theses on it) arguing that Wikipedia is more accurate than Britannica. This is because it can be observed that Wikipedia gets corrected more often than it gets sabotaged. Besides, when some incompetent person fucks with Wikipedia, eventually someone else just reverts the changes and it's all better.
As far as the penis length article, obviously studies with those sample sizes aren't fool proof, but several studies are referenced, and in every single one of them at least 93% of people are below 7". I'm not sure why you said that was meaningless. It's just a statement about the numbers they came up with, and it's true. Your own study you reference does not dispute this:

He asked urologists? Obviously that's stupid. Who gets hard for the doctor? And since when is it standard practice for the doctor to then measure your erection and log the results? :D
Anyway, just look at people's responses here. 93 people responded before me, putting the average at 6.7". If you've seen many dicks at all, or talked to people who have, it should be common sense that the average is between 5.0" and 6.0". Every one of those studies shows that less than 10% are over 7.0" and less than 10% are under 4.0". Now look at this thread:
15 people said they were over 8.0"
27 people said they were over 7.0"
31 people were equal to or greater than 7.0"
3 people were equal to or less than 4.0"
1 person said he was under 4.0"
Do you really think 33.3% of people here are over 7"? I stand by my statement that a lot of them are full of shit. But maybe I'm wrong. If I am, you 8.0"+ studs should be making porn, not wasting your time talking about shemales.
Go ahead and measure your cock from the bottom starting half way to your asshole if it makes you feel better. It just seems kinda silly to me.
