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.
