Re: 7 wonders of the modern world
However, I could not substantiate it in Wikipedia... So...
Ah, not everything on wikipedia is 100% correct. There was a case study made on wikipedia and encyclopedia britannica on 50 articles on the same topics, revealed that the former has 3.86 errors per article. Moreover, you can't expect to find in an article, all the information about that topic.
