Wikipedia is "vox pupuli", so it can be arbitrary non-sense -- experienced 
users of Wikipedia should know that. Nonetheless, I have occasionally 
updated the version number of the official Isabelle release there.

BTW, Wikipedia *content* should be discussed on the Wikipedia discussion 
page in question, in order to avoid bypassing the official structures of 
that project.


I am more concerned about this wiki here: 
https://isabelle.in.tum.de/community since it is provided by one of the 
established Isabelle sites.

I would still like to see a genuine Isabelle community contributing here, 
and doing serious maintenance.  Right now it is just a scribbling board 
for people who were discontent with some of the official READMEs or 
manuals, and even that is often pointless already due to continuous 
updates of the official versions.
