Wikipedia "not valid source" rant part 2.

[Lucky]

In college you can use any rinky dink ass joe schmoe website* for a source. How do I know??? cuz i did it for like every paper ever dummy

But then wikipedia, with 9000000000 nerd nazis working around the clock to keep bad info and torlling out, is not acceptable

* Unless ur like goin 4 doctorate then u can only use like .gov which is even worse than joe schmoe in terms of disinfo

Wikipedia is an amazing source of secondary research. I use it constantly, for everything. But the nature of wikipedia makes it unsuitable for scholarly papers. Just too editable and it takes time for the "nazis" to catch everything.

Once I was at a sushi restaurant with a friend who was behaving badly. They gave him a "complimentary" fried green tea ice cream (tempura green tea ice cream). But they put it on a bed of red onions and wasabi. I knew they were fucking with him, but I convinced him it was just a "traditional" way of serving it (didn't want any more bad behavior). I went home and edited the wikipedia entry for japanese fried ice cream and included information about how, in more traditional restaurants, it is served on a bed of red onions and wasabi. I told him to look it up. I think my entry was on there a good week or two.

Good lord, this forum is full of pissing and moaning lately.

Go down to that shit at the bottom of the Wikipedia entry, where they cite their sources. Click through to the primary research. Put it in your paper. Stop whining.

Have you considered a trade school? Plumbers make really good money. If you're in repairs, it's basically recession-proof. HVAC is a good field, too.
