Wikipedia

The ASMS's homework cheatsheet.

Teacher's insist it is not a real site.

Screw that.
There's an assignment due for Biotechnology. First stop, Wikipedia.

Wikipedia

The free encyclopedia that anyone can edit. One of the several sites in the whole Wikimedia project. The all-knowing site on the Internet. You've got questions, it's got answers. Basically, it's the Internet's equivalent of God.
Wikipedia even has an article about this website, Urban Dictionary.

Wikipedia

A unique article-making web site where it has anything. You can make articles, anyone can make articles, talk about the articles you, your friend, or a total stranger, has posted. The disadvantage of anyone can edit/make articles is that anyone can post anything that isn't true. However, Wiki's, or how it's abbreviated, users can report an article to a moderator and they will restore the text ASAP or close to the text. Wikipedia is often not trusted on by schools because of that simple disadvantage.
Wikipedia is an awesome web site, despite the fact that's it's user-powered.

wikipedia

The website that our teachers tell us not to use but we still use anyway.
Teacher: Now class I want you to research The 1663 war. This is due on Monday submit by 12 am. Please don't do this last minute and use Wikipedia.

Me on Sunday 11:55 pm: Right so the 1663 war happened in 2015 I Antarctica. Makes sense thanks Wikipedia.

Wikipedia

A source teachers will normally call unreliable cause it can be “changed” even though it is normally monitored 24/7
Teacher: Look for a source online I will not credit you for Wikipedia. Kid: Wikipedia is a reliable source it’s monitored on a daily basis.

wikipedia

By the people, but not necessarily for the people. Attempts to define and explain everything, ideally without writing a book on every topic.
Has the same issues as any other democracy or a place, with group majorities - tribalism and its cultural influence: A place were simps, feminists, bitches, are making their tribal biases/opinions 'scientific', while linking what is pretty much their own blog's shitposts for sources; and nerds are trying to make their hobby/area of expertise articles as unreadable as possible for a commoner.

Has a tendency of throwing you into a rabbit whole of information, when you've already forgotten your initial question and have ended up reading articles on ancient Chinese schools of thought for no reason.
I disagree with that wikipedia article, so I've edited the definition to be a more 'objective representation of reality'. Also I'm undoing all the edits that disagree with me, my majority will prevail!

I'm wikipedia-eductated.
