Still not sure which database has the best info.
What do you use to find out about your favorite celebrity, movies, or answers to pop culture trivia?

IMDB's material tends to be more reliable (not saying it doesn't have its mistakes), but any edits have to be made by a user and are reviewed by IMDB staff before being posted, whereas anyone with an internet connection can edit Wikipedia and therefore post things they've completely made up or heard only as a rumour.

I Wikipedia. IMDB doesn't always have all the info I'm looking for, and plus, Wikipedia links to IMDB most of the time so it's a win-win for all.

Both! I think IMDB is good for movies and trivia info on them. Wikipedia is good for finding out anything.

I find out stuff on Wiki that I didn't know at all....IMDB was great until I found Wiki. I still reference both when I am looking up stuff but I think I go to Wiki first....then again I think IMDB is often a more reliable source.

Wikipedia isn't accurate and can be changed incorrectly by everyone. I'm not sure about IMDB, but I wouldn't suggest Wikipedia.

I use IMDB for information on the entertainment industry and Wikipedia for more obscure stuff

IMDB has been known to commit big errors (eg: saying people are married when they aren't) but I think its very up-to-date when they mention what movies are being made by the actors/actresses. Wiki is more detailed in some aspects.

I go to celebrities official websites.
Wiki and IMDB are sites where users can freely put info about someone or something. I don't really go to refer to those sites because they're info may not be fully accurate.
