Re: Use of Wikipedia Content
I'm going to be blunt. I appreciate the value of Wikipedia on some level for getting a very basic overview of some topics. HOWEVER, since there are a lot of facts stated from other sources included there, I feel that leaning on Wikipedia does a great disservice to the original writings that have covered these topics. Even though Wikipedia is leaning more toward a Creative Commons model of copyrighting, there's still a multitude of ethical concerns with borrowing from Wikipedia.
