Apparently, Wikipedia had erroneously reported the demise of actor/comedian Sinbad due to a heart attack.
He's still among the living, though, according to the AP.
I'm happy for Mr. David Adkins (Sinbad's real moniker) that he's not dead, but this kind of boo-boo puts Wikipedia's user-generated content in a bad light. Of course, the "legitimate" media gets things wrong sometimes, too.
So let's all just rejoice in the fact that this major, major talent was not snatched away from us prematurely.
