Stop Using Wikipedia

I'm sick of people siting Wikipedia--for anything. Wikipedia is not an authoritative site; the information is not peer reviewed, meaning that what you're reading could be inaccurate. In fact, there are people who make a hobby out of changing random articles in Wikipedia, changing dates and "facts." Most professors I've come across wouldn't accept Wikipedia as a reliable source, because IT ISN'T.

So look elsewhere for credible information, especially when you need to reinforce a point you've made.
