When my teacher limits us to a number sources?

Question

What exactly does that mean

Lets say i could ONLY used wikipedia, i could have a bibliography 2 pages long still, as long as wikipedia the only mentioned source

Answer 1

that means you can only use the number of sources your teacher gives you. if your teach says you can have up to 3 sources, then you will only have 3 sources in your bib, even if they are from the same website. also, wikipedia is not a juried source--the info on there is not always edited, therefore the info may not be true. it is not accepted at most universities, im not sure about jr/sr high schools, ask your teacher.

Answer 2

a bibilography has to be in a certain format, you need more articles. Just goggle youur topin and click and print the first 10 articles
