Somewhat correct ...

If someone is looking for an answer to "What is an IBM i", they may end up on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_System_i.

But, if they are looking for the answer to "How do I debug a program on the IBM in batch", they are probably looking for http://wiki.midrange.com/index.php/Debug_in_Batch.

If we focus on putting detail IBM i information in Wikipedia, it will get lost and diluted by all the other (unrelated) information. With the Midrange Wiki's focus exclusively on IBM i, you can count on a search of it turning up relevant information all the time.

And, because the Midrange Wiki is focused on IBM i, it's probably more likely to be correct ... compare http://wiki.midrange.com/index.php/ASP to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assigned_Storage_Pool (just as an example).
