Wikipedia is fabulous. I wish educators would stop telling people that it’s not reliable, and start using it to teach media literacy - which, for wiki purposes, is essentially to read the talk page to see what viewpoints have been included and excluded and why.

totally agree. But in best case you check the reference Wikipedia is referencing which is usually the first source of a fact.
