Wikipedia is not the place for "truth", it's only an extremely useful machine that summarizes information from secondary sources. It can only repeat information from trusted, secondary sources (there are exceptions to primary sources, but only when the source is universally considered trusted, which is not the case here). Even if the information is true, if it's not published by a trusted secondary source elsewhere, it cannot claim that. Similarly, the claims by Wikipedia cannot be cited as reliable information, but the sources of the claims can.
So Wikipedia, by its policies, cannot be updated until there's sufficient press coverage (Although verification != press coverage, and there are legitimate criticisms that say verification on Wikipedia via popular press coverage is often given an undue weight, on the other hand reliable professional literature is undercited, which can compromise Wikipedia's integrity, but it's another story). It's frustrating that many people fail to grasp how Wikipedia works.
