WIKIPEDIA Not your granddaddy’s encyclopedia!

“Wikipedia is a multilingual, web- based, free-content encyclopedia project” --Wikipedia:About

Wiki = collaborative website What does this really mean??? Encyclopedia = a book containing a series of alphabetized articles providing general information on a wide range of topics

Wikipedia is a community encyclopedia ANYONE can add information – real or otherwise!!

Strengths of Wikipedia Web-based Large number of active writers and editors provides timely coverage Topics kept current Hyperlinking to related topics

Weaknesses of Wikipedia Any article, at any time, may be in the middle of a major edit or vandalized Incomplete May be biased No verification of information Some contributors do not cite their sources

RESEARCH on Wikipedia From Wikipedia: Article Quality in Wikipedia “Keep in mind that an encyclopedia is intended to be a starting point for serious research, not an endpoint.”

Bottom Line-- It is YOUR responsibility to find out what the rules are for a website. It is NOT your teacher’s or your parents’ responsibility. IGNORANCE is not a defense.
