Wikipedia: why is it used?

Why is wikipedia used? Is it because of recognition amoung people (see Wikipedia: User Fame) or is it something much more sinister. Personally I think it is because of general human instinct and your identification as a human being; this is nothing too phylosofical, just that naturally humans thrist for knowledge (even though some people do not show this in any sense of the phrase (is what I just wrote a phrase it self or did I make it up, oh well)), and we also thrist to spread this knowledge. The main reason for this is proberally to do with how our brain works, or just any brain of any animal as all animals learn and want to learn as this will increase their survival rate; this also means that to increase their survival rate they must teach their young or just anyone or thing they know as no threat that is their same species,m some thimes even other species. As humans we have greater interlect so expand off this and know that if we learn we can learn even more and the way we are allows us to exploit this and make ourselves more powerful and capable of surviving, as we evolved, both mentally and physically we became more dominent (mainly though intelergence and being able to judge better then the rest of what to do in certain situations, like run very fast from giant man eating beast or stand and fight with bear hands, simple really; stand and fight (I was only joking, don't think I am stupid or anything), actually though instinct a human may have more chance then most animals due to ability to climb and effectively fight with just hands, such as against dogs and other such animals). As we slowly evolved we know more and more that knowledge allows us to get above others, such as use of fire and other things and slowly make us the most dominent species on the planet; and many more things, I will slowly add on to this second random rant, along with my strange comedy. Won't that be lovely!

Wow, I blabered on here about nothing, now to do the same with the other thing.
