Wikipedia

My feelings about Wikipedia are a little bit mixed. I definitely use Wikipedia, but it is usually when I am looking something up simply for my own knowledge. Usually, I look at stuff regarding movies, television, or sports. Sometimes I use it when I am looking for a definition of something or to explain an everyday thing. I normally don't read Wikipedia articles to use for scholastic purposes. I have never cited a Wikipedia article in any paper I've written in college. I don't recall any professor say specifically not to use Wikipedia, I just have never felt it to be entirely reliable when writing a scholarly essay. I definitely think it could be used for certain academic purposes, I, however, am just a little skeptical.
