One of the best encyclopedias on the net.
Much more info than any other ency.
And also considering that it is free, it has to be great.

A good information resource for me.

thanx,
Shadab.


My periodic table contains only 1 element : the element of Surprise.

Wikipedia is the best encyclopedia. You can find anything you want in there and it's free and easy to use. I am gonna rate it with 10/10.

It's a good source of information. I mean, I'm not saying It's the best cos obviously there are much better sources, but if you analyse the fact that it has multiple languages, you can donate and it's about almost everything, then you gotta hand it over.
Of course the bad part is that you don't know if the info is 100% correct cos you can easily change it. But still, it's very good, and growing

You guys are blind, i was making a presentation for my school and found some realy interesting info and put it in (i that time i thought its the best encyclopedia ever). The profesor who was checking my work was amazed with it too, but later in the day he said its fake info and i had to remake my whole work . You can use it for fun but for anything serious NO.

I vote for "Yeah, i like it its realy good."
Sorry, But I think your profesor has problem. Wikipedia is open sources. Its free, contantly updating, you should pick and choose what you think it's good for you.
