Though the idea behind Wikapedia is wonderful, I have frequently found
erroneousinformation in entries.  So I am very hesitant to cite a Wikapedia article
as a source, though atmy daughter's school, teachers accept Wikapedia articles as Internet
references, though mostof them refuse to accept .com sites!  I found a Wikapedia article on John
Rankin and though itwas well-written and contained no errors, the author had used only ONE
source (which he/she cited, in contrast to many Wikapedia articles I read).
