Well, sort of. Wikipedia pages are not, *prima facie*, reliable sources to
be used for other wikipedia articles as a matter of policy – one is welcome
to use the sources cited in such an article and evaluate them for use in
citing an article, instead. They can be reliable, though, if one verifies
the sources given. Wikipedia, especially areas that are highly trafficked
and maintained, and therefore well-cited, can be among the better sources
out there for many things.

I can't speak for the time-related stuff as a whole, but I've fixed a few
things as I come across them.
