wikipedia

The wikipedia assignment that we had to do for class was very useful and eye opening.  I always knew that Wikipedia was not an accredited and valid source but I did not know much more about the site.  I knew that anyone at anytime can post whatever they please on whatever subject.  This means not that there are many personal views and insights and many skewed facts about the article.  There is no person who can check the postings and that is no good.  I also realized that along with bad information, there is no information at all about alot articles.  There are missing links and links that are not there anymore and and a whole more variety of things.  In Wikipedia, depending on who wrote the article there are many biases and personal opinions.  For example, some sites on global warming have a conservative opinion who obviously says that global warming does not exist and is made up.  On the other hand some sites on global warming say that global warming exists and is due to a variety of many things, these sites are many written by liberal authors.  I would not suggest to anyone to use Wikipedia for any type of project, paper, assignment etc.  It just is not worth it.  I think that my group did a great job and everyone deserves an A.  My partners did their part and did it well.  Everyone did their work on time.  We knew alot about the subject and worked very hard on it.
