But this time, even Wikipedia, a collaborative, multilingual Internet encyclopedia, got fooled by the Twitter death hoax. Wikipedia, one of the most viewed Web sites, update the actor's page and mentioned the death date of the actor as "26 February 2012" on its site, but it later deleted it.
Wordings like that unfortunately perpetuate the illusion that the things that appear on Wikipedia's pages are the result of an editorial team's decisions.
