For topics that are old enough to be in there, you still can't beat a paper copy of the Encyclopedia Britannica. I once showed it to a class of elementary-school kids who were supposed to be learning on-line research from their dumb new-age teacher in their school library. But their network had slowed down, and the kids were getting restless, so while the teacher struggled with the silly machines, I showed them how to look up ancient Egypt in the three paper encyclopedias on the shelves. They loved it: the pictures were there to touch, you could skip around to look at other parts of the articles, and there is an authenticity to a paper encyclopedia that I'm afraid Wikipedia cannot ever match.

Wikipedia is a great research website and encyclopedia all in one. The only problem is that you can edit the pages. So, make sure to check the facts you get from Wikipedia because they are not guaranteed to be accurate. Another great website is World Factbook.

I do a lot of research, for my school newsaper, class projects, and just research for the fun of it all! And everytime I research, I find a couple good websites that jsut stick out. I would have to say Wikipedia is the main researching website that everyone should use. They use clear definitions, have basically everything, and make it easy to search things. If you need a good research website, I fully recomend using Wikipedia.

I LOVE Wikipedia. It goes straight to the point of what u're looking for. However be careful since anyone can edit wikipedia information. If you see something fishy in an article look it up somewhere else to confirm the info

If you search by google, wikipedia will usually turn up as one of the sources

Encarta is also a very good source of information and obviously it is much more reliable than wikipedia

It is hard to answer what is best, because this differs from person to person. I personally prefer Wikipedia for research. It has a great sum of knowledge. Unfortunately, there is no fact verification, and any one can edit it. Therefore, it isn't necessarily the best for reliable information.

truthfully, the internet has truthfully made me extra knowledgeable in wrestling. I are available in the time of issues that i actually did no longer understand related to the early days of the WWF, WCW, NWA, etc. i understand there are spoiler sites available yet I attempt to no longer look into them so it would not extremely hassle me. by way of internet, i will discover fits from different promotions or the early fits from the old days that I neglected while i became a infant. So all in all, the internet has helped me be a wiser wrestling fan quite than harm me. -Quote the Raven...Nevermore

Wikipedia is always a good start. Unfortunately it's not always regarded as a legitimate source, but the related links at the bottom are usually really helpful.
