Wikipedia is not a verified source for my kids at school. Their teachers will not let them use it as a source in their research papers. It is content created by the public (could there be something wrong with this formula? I guess I won't go there.) Wikimapia.org appears to be its cousin. Local content by anyone who cares to add verbage. It has aerial photos of major city areas.
I first discovered it when I was google-ing "Nippers Corner". Do you know what comes up right now when I google "Nippers Corner"? Curse words by someone in Nippers Corner about Brentwood drivers. Yuck. Apparently, on wikimapia.org, you can highlight buildings and give them names, like "Kroger" or "The Snappy Tomato". And then you can leave comments.
