Back in early 2000s, wikipedia was considered not a legitimate source for school and uni papers. Is it considered one now? I'd bet so
Yeah, it's acceptable as a source. It can't be your only source if you write a paper - they make you cite an arbitrary minimum # of sources. The funny thing is, anything "unreliable" (read: independent outlets, research) cannot be used. It has to be a reputable (propaganda) Source.
I used to just plug in random sources and write whatever I wanted. Just get it close to making sense and it usually worked, lol. I know that teachers didn't care about what you wrote half the time, just that you didn't plagiarize
I remember my elementary school teachers not allowing us to use wikipedia, because “anyone can edit it” its not actual sources. But i also remember my high school teachers saying that if its not on wikipedia, its not true…
How quickly opinions change about "legitimate sources" huh? Lol.
