Wikipedia is tangible, whereas God is nothing more than an abstract idea.
"If your god has to make peace with me in my final hour when he has my whole lifetime to prove his existence to me...do you think I should bother?"

"But the happiness of an atheist is neither the vacuous enjoyment of a fool, nor the short-lived pleasure of a rogue. It is rather the expression of a disposition that has ceased to torture itself with foolish fancies, or perplex itself with useless beliefs." - Chapman Cohen

We can also argue that Wikipedia is greater as it selfless. It involves people and encourages everyone to contribute to the knowledge base for the good of all. You are remembered by it for updating articles and immortalised in its history.

God on the other hand, the self-proclaimed alpha and omega, is utterly selfish and egotistical, he cares not for mankind's growth and development, as far as he's concerned everyone exists and dies solely to glorify him.
