I use WIKI 2 every day and almost forgot how the original Wikipedia looks like.
What we do. Every page goes through several hundred of perfecting techniques; in live mode. Quite the same Wikipedia. Just better.
Great Wikipedia has got greater.

NGC 6604 is a young[6] open cluster of stars in the equatorial constellation of Serpens, positioned about 1.5° north of the Eagle Nebula (NGC 6611).[7] The cluster was discovered by William Herschel on July 15, 1784.[8] It is located at a distance of 4,580[2] light years from the Sun, about 210 ly (65 pc) above the galactic plane.[7] NGC 6604 forms the densest part of the Ser OB2 association of co-moving stars.[9]

This cluster is fairly compact with a Trumpler class of I3p,[6] and is still undergoing star formation.[10][7] It lies at the heart of an H II region with the identifier S54, and the two are most likely linked.[6] The cluster has an estimated age of 6.5[1] million years and contains several massive stars of the OB type.[6] One of these is the high mass triple star system HD 167971, which includes the over-contact eclipsing binary MY Ser. It is one of the most luminous stars in the galaxy.[10] HD 168112 is another colliding-wind binary in the cluster; both systems are over-luminous in their X-ray emission.[11]
