Seeing "Sizzle" in that profile made me feel shocked. Uhhh Wikipedia actually still uses an ancient build of jQuery that does not take advantage of native querySelector at all?!?

No, jQuery falls back to Sizzle when a selector is not supported by native querySelector, either due to using jQuery-specific extensions, or due to lacking browser support.
