I don’t think you fully grasp how Wikipedia works and how much work is put into it to keep it up to date and accurate. Maybe you should try changing the meaning on that page and see what happens (although I don’t actually condone that kind of behavior).
I could vouch for that specific article, because it words it better than I could. But, it seems you’d rather have a ridiculous argument than have your question answered…

Wikipedia is probably the most trustworthy source around. It can be wrong so you should still verify it if you want to be sure. But, I don’t think there’s another site with a large amount of knowledge that is so consistently accurate.
What you should have learned from school is that you don’t cite it in your papers, because it’s not the original source for anything. But, you definitely should be using it for your research and using it’s citations to go deeper.

There’s no reason to bring the quadratic formula into this. Square roots can be negative, but when talking about the square root it’s normally assumed to be the principal square root, which is the positive one.

Well it’s not creating energy out of thin air. But it is moving it. So you get more energy moved than the amount of energy put in.
