WIKIPEDIA: How helpful it is? :)

How do you find Wikipedia? For me its the best ever. Lahat na ata nang pwedeng malaman sa kahit anong bagay mapa-movies, books, characters, etc, lahat andito na. Helpful din sa mga research work 8)

yeah wikipedia's helpful... but not always.

you cant really rely on wikipedia alone. kahit sino pwede mag-edit niyan at kung anu-anong info ang ilagay e. diba may 'edit' link sa gilid ng every post dun? so kahit ako pwede kong itype dun na kunwari binaril si Rizal nung february 14.
By the time you finish reading this, you'll realize that you have wasted 5 seconds of your life

Yep totally. I think you need to register or something to edit or put infos on the site. Pero di pa naman ako tinatraydor ng Wikipedia with my research and stuff ;)

Wikipedia's a big help to fight boredom at the office. Lalo na't yun lang rin naman ang accessible website sa office. Pero as what the others had said, di nga sya reliable kasi may mahilig mang-edit ng infos dun.

Wiki is reliable in a way but not 100%.
Never ever used it as a source for your thesis.

I agree, di naman siya 100% totoo ::) Pero when I wanna do a research about this TV show or movie, sa Wiki ako :D

Kapag movies/singers/actors, yun agad pinupuntahan ko. Haha. Pero kapag research work, sa ibang website ako.

Wikipedia is a very valuable source of information. Usually, I spend a lot of time there just reading the articles. Sometimes, I`d reach from 'biology' to 'electronic paper' in a matter of minutes. =))

Though my only issue is that anyone can edit it. I don`t know though if moderators actually view the content submitted, but yeah, yun lang.

What I love about Wiki is the links na indicated dun sa isang certain article. Atleast di na magsesearch uli kasi andun na halos lahat ::)
