[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 893360, member: 60724"] Shaun t said: Regarding the accuracy of Wikipedia, you might want to consider your own accuracy. You just made an assertion which you cannot prove. NEVER is an awfully long time. No one can make claims of what will NEVER happen with 100% accuracy (did I just make such a claim? - HA). In a recent review, Wikipedia was sampled and considered for accuracy against the Encyclopedia Britianica and was found to have roughly the same rate of errors as that widely reverred source. As for universities accepting Wikipedia as a source, no reputable university should allow ANY encyclopedia as a source. However, like any other encyclopedia, Wikipedia is a good starting point from which to find a credible roadmap of other sources; sources that can then be reviewed and considered for use in research and in papers.
