"Judge Sciarrino's order, which managed to quote both Wikipedia and 'Hamlet,' meanwhile served as something of a primer for the technologically challenged."
It's quite common for Wikipedia to be cited for background information by both judges and lawyers. I'm not sure I would do so personally...
As for that specific case, how is that newsworthy? Who would ever think that contacting someone on MySpace didn't constitute contacting them?
