Wikipedia is not a company, it's a website.
The organization that runs the website, the Wikimedia Foundation, is also not a company. It's a nonprofit.
And the Wikimedia Foundation have not “spent years trying to get things right”, assuming you're referring to facts posted on Wikipedia. That was in fact a bunch of unpaid volunteer contributors, many of whom anonymous and almost all of whom unaffiliated with the Wikimedia Foundation.
Yes, Wikipedia is an organisation, not a company (my bad). They spent years improving its tools and building a strong community. Volunteers review changes and some edits get automatically flagged or even reversed if they look suspicious or come from anonymous users. When there's a dispute, editors use "Talk" pages to discuss what should or shoulda't be included.
You can't really argue with those facts.
