Week 2 Opinion Re:Article on Problems with Wikipedia

Regarding the maliciously false posting about Mr. Siegenthaler on Wikipedia, that is the reason I seldom, if ever, go to Wikipedia. One never knows if what is read there is actually correct in its entirety. It could be completely correct, may have a good faith error, a careless mistake, or even a malicious entry, and the reader might never know. We were discouraged from using Wikipedia as a cited source for papers in my English classes for that reason.
