Thank you, Harry. We have corrected the headline.

Skobbler is not the wikipedia of maps. OpenStreetMap is the wikipedia of maps, and (importantly!) OpenStreetMap has not been acquired by anyone!

Not sure what the correction should be. Something like “Telenav acquires Skobbler to tap into ‘the wikipedia of maps’ “.

The rest of the article is good. It seems well researched and accurate, so it’s a shame the headline mischaracterises the situation so badly.
