Apparently Wikipedia got going in 2004? I could have sworn it was earlier ... Where do they research these things?

At least they credit Ward Cunningham. On the issue of Internet Cafés they perpetrate the canard that that Cyberia in London was in some sense the first one, when in fact it was inspired by the Finnish CompuCafe.
Never mind the way earlier implementations mentioned in [[Internet Café]].
