Is Wikipedia a Bad Site?

[Hanyou]

I once used Wikipedia to study for a Russian history final, and I passed the class with flying colors.

'Nuff said. The site won me over thereafter, and while it has some inaccuracies on occasions, it's a very reliable source--especially for getting other sources.

It is hard to make a good opinion about Wikipedia. On one hand, everyone can contribute to it, making it easy for errors to slip in, on the other hand you can just go ahead and correct and don't have to wait a year for a correction. Its biggest strength is also its biggest flaw.
