This is why you shouldn't let them play with sharp objects! Thankfully, the little guy seemed to recover all right, with only a little scarring to remind him what not to do with forks: Link
trust me, not fake, my little cousin did that (while in my care, no less) by tripping while helping set the table and it looked exactly the same except he had 2 prongs impaled instead of 3.
Unfortunately he was at that phase (around 5 years old) that after he got over the pain he thought it was "way cool" he could get a fork through his nose and decided that if he could do it again without it hurting he would...luckily he hasn't tried.
Eugh, I really do wish you wouldn't post pictures of injuries without a warning. It's not that I can't stomach the gore or anything like that - I love action movies and red meat and such - I just hate seeing people suffer.
Blatant edits on Wikipedia are annoying, but they're not as dangerous as subtle (but very wrong) edits - I once encountered a series of articles that are legit on the outset but turn out to be completely nonsensical. My trust on Wikipedia hasn't been the same ever since.
I have an idiot boss who likes to use the phrase "that wouldn't be prudent". Every once in a while me and my co-workers will go on to Wikipedia and change the picture on the entry for prudence to a picture of our boss. It gets changed back within a day, but it's always good for a laugh-filled afternoon!
I use Wikipedia all the time, but mainly for general information. I always check the sources at the bottom, or double check by searching for corroborating information.
