I have just updated the community website so the Wikipedia checks use
the latest LT snapshot:
http://community.languagetool.org/corpusMatch/list?lang=en
Please use that site to find and fix false alarms.

Sorry if this seems obtuse. I went there and it seems to suggest that I correct the texts at Wikipedia (which I don't have an a/c in).

Anyway, I spotted one little flaw on the rule I added. The <message> is slightly improved here:

<rule id="IN_A_X_MANNER" name="Wordiness: in a ... manner">
    <pattern>
      <token>in</token>
      <token regexp="yes">a|an</token>
<token postag="JJ"><exception regexp="yes">preparatory|good|modern|christian|agglutinative|unsterile</exception></token>
      <token>manner</token>
    </pattern>
<message>Consider replacing "in \2 \3 manner" with adverb for "\3"; eg, "in a hasty manner" with "hastily".</message>
<short>Possible wordiness</short>
<example type="incorrect">He came <marker>in a hasty manner</marker>.</example>
    <example type="correct">He came hastily.</example>
</rule>
