How can you detect that a WikiVoyage page is out of date?

Since Wikivoyage is a wiki, every page has an associated history page, where you can see the date of each modification. With some effort, you could figure out when a particular piece of information was added. Of course, just because something was added long ago does not mean it's not current, however. For most things, especially businesses, you can generally do a Google search which would yield their homepage if they have one, or at least other pages referring to them, if it's still operating.

IMO you should always go with primary sources for such things anyway: things can and do change on very short notice, and even the best guide will get things wrong sometimes.
