NP here. I also find it to be pretty unreliable. Good for getting a basic grasp of some things, but I don't trust it.
How about some examples of what you found unreliable?

I do a $5/month donation. It's useful and costs a whole lot less than a set of encyclopedias (or encyclopedia software).

Yes. It's far from perfect, but the amount of information it provides to the number of people it serves for its small budget is amazing. And remember, it's not just serving people in rich countries but also people in developing countries.

I noticed Wikipedia seeking donations off and on for the last couple years. Would you consider that a worth cause to donate to? It says on the website that if everyone reading it donated $3, their fund raiser would be accomplished in one hour.
