I mostly just do little changes when I see them.

I'm not much for the politics of Wikipedia, but in general have the belief that nearly anything can make a valid argument for being "notable", for the same reason that there are a thousand television stations with nothing on: Differentiation. There are no longer single platforms which everyone always uses, but thousands of tiny little ones that matter for a select few. Everything matters to someone somewhere, and exclusion only helps to make Wikipedia less useful.

Along that venue, I believe in the organizational concept of fit: That one's use is determined heavily by the context of the situation. Wikipedia is not a print encyclopedia, but an online wiki. It has its own use, own specialization, less in the completeness and relevance of data, more in the ability to procure current information, and rapidly fill it in. Since the very nature of Wikipedia will never allow for it to be an academic source of intellectual material (such that citing it is only realistic in the search of common knowledge-styled data), it should instead emphasize the points in which it is more capable.
