Etymology is not alway cut and dry and wikitionary claiming that "faux" is the origin is simply one of the guesses. The only online sources I can give you is a collection here and you'll see that the majority trace it down to falsare. Offline you can consult American Heritage or the definitive Barnhart or this interesting book all of which trace this down to false.
