I don't necessarily claim to be blessed with wisdom, conventional or
otherwise, but I usually go for something like this:

@INCOLLECTION{:2007:SN,
crossref="::WFE",
title="Stefan number",
year=2007,
month=feb # "~17",
note="{URL}:
$\langle$\urn{http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stefan_number}$\rangle$"
}

@MISC{::WFE,
title="Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia",
howpublished="World-Wide Web pages",
note="{URL}: $\langle$\urn{http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page}$\rangle$",
booktitle="Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia"
}
