Wikipedia can be editing by ANYONE so dont believe everything you read on their like most people. A lot of it is true but dont take it for granted, often people have a laugh and edit obvious stuff (eg 'the ring' being in France)

there is a reason why wikipedia is not a quoteable source of information for schools or university ;)...

France? Huh? Must have been edited by our geography-challenged high school students.
