Are Wikipedia backlinks worth it?

So I've noticed that there is some information i can add to Wikipedia and get links for my website.
But are these links worth investing the time?
Do they help getting traffic in any way?

The fact is, Wikipedia has a lot of potential value for a site, but only if you go about it the right way. Links may not give you link juice, but they give you positioning and authority in terms of being a cited source on a wiki article.

Yes, definitely! If it’s legit, you can only get benefits from it.
