By the same token, having a link to the wiki from the built-in docs,  
would obviate the need to duplicate the same info in the wiki.  Only  
the additional information need be in the wiki.

However, if the internal docs could download a corrected definition  
from the wiki, then there is a good reason to have the complete  
definition included.  Could bring up the possibility of an auto  
update/notification:

Message:  There is an updated definition for "isNumber".  Would you  
like to download it now?  Yes No View
