I hear first time such a thing like comma before "and". In my language it's not allowed.

Neither in my language. I was also terrified when I heard about that rule. In most of the world languages, either there is nothing before "and", or there is a semicolon before it. But in English, there is a punctuation rule regarding the notation of a comma before "end". It comes in two situations: in a list of things, and before "and, but, for, nor, yet, or, so" if they were used to seperate two independent clauses. The former has a special name: "Oxford Comma" and it is not obligatory to use it in casual speech. But generally, on formal concepts (newspaper articles, letters to president etc.) it is a necessity. So I say we must use it since wikia should be very formal and professional.
