Students in English Composition at Solano Community College should not be citing Wikipedia as a source for their research papers. Why? Well, first of all, college-age students should be using primary and secondary sources rather than encyclopedias and dictionaries. You're grown-ups, now, and we expect you to look a little deeper into issues.
But what is more, Wikipedia differs significantly from print and even many other Internet sources. It is created and edited by a large and mostly anonymous community. Pages may change on a day-to-day basis. It is hard for you to know who last edited or added the page you are looking at, and whether that person had a bias or any expertise.
For instance, I added this page myself on Sunday because I was disappointed by how many of you ignored my repeated instructions NOT to quote Wiki in your papers. Please let this be the last time you make this mistake.
