If you use Wikipedia...WHY? It is not a reliable source at all! Anyone can add information even if it is completely false! I remember they had to shut down the "elephant" information because so many people were adding false information because Stephan Colbert told them to. So why do you use it?!

Don't you want to KNOW that your facts are correct for sure?

I don't use it ~ I get basic info, but I don't use it for anything important ~ it isn't very reliable ~ You always should check more sources before coming to a conclusion about anything

Because despite all its perceived faults, the majority of the information is accurate and unbiased. I think its main strength is that anyone can contribute (despite the efforts of the Colbert Nation.)

most of the time the information is correct, but if you want to you can go in and add a linked page of your personal opinions or views on whatever you feel is false and create your own informative page.

I like to spam it up and wreck the pages. I totally wrecked the page for YT.com I'm sure it has been changed.
