4 Ways to Use Wikipedia (hint: never cite it)

Posted by chiclibrary on 2007/11/14

By now, you have probably heard an instructor say “no Wikipedia” when assigning a research paper. Wikipedia is an online encyclopedia written collaboratively by volunteers who may or may not be accurate.  For your academic work, you want better odds than that. 

While you don’t want to cite Wikipedia as a source for your project, you may find it useful as a tool in the research process.

 Wikipedia CAN help you write better papers.  Click here to find out how.
