I stand for Wikipedia not against it!

After reading the artical " A Stand against Wikipedia" I have some mixed emotions on how certain people use the website and how some professors view it. Personaly i feel that wikipedia is a good website to get a general understanding for a subject and can be a stepping stone in leading you in the right direction to more reliable sorces. I also feel that the ban of wikipedia is absolutly crazy, where ever you get your information from you should validate it and make sure its correct, and if some people descide to use it and dont make sure the information is correct ..... shame on you!
