I absolutely love Wikipedia
The online encyclopedia shouldn’t ever be used by somebody as part of a research project (anybody can edit the pages, but there’s always other contributers who attempt to keep the info correct.) but if you quickly want to learn about something, or if you ever thought you might need the information, Wikipedia is the place to be.
Trust me, it’ll be on there.
In order to make Wikipedia a lot more compelling, even though it isn’t needed, Lifehacker (definitely check them out, they’re popular for a reason!) has a great list titled “Top 10 Wikipedia Tricks”:
10. Contribute!
