wikipedia has some of the most god awful html code I've ever seen. Remember when we were trying t0 sort out those author biographies so they could be converted to LRF instead of PDF? Well it did not work well. Even kovidgoyal said it was that bad. And it was and they ended up being PDF in the reader screen size. So yes, I would say the iLiad might be your best shot at reading full wikipedias but for seperate articles, you could go to PDF and use a Sony or Cybook.
