Wikipedia
One of the largest reference websites on the Internet. The content of Wikipedia is free, and is written collaboratively by people from around the world. Because it lacks the editorial process found in traditional encyclopedias, the information available is not always accurate, comprehensive, or unbiased. For more information on what Wikipedia is, see About Wikipedia. Note that some instructors do not approve of Wikipedia as a source in student papers, and that the content found in Wikipedia should always be used with caution and probably no more than a possible starting point for further research.
