Wikipedia

Wikipedia ( is a web site on the internet. It was written by Larry Whales Jimmysanger over a long weekend in September of 2014 after eating too many cheese flavored nachos and downing a two liter bottle of Mountain Dew.   New articles can be added by sending cheese flavored snacks and a post it note with the requested subject to Larry J, at 200 West Willy St, St Georges Barnacles, West Whales, 220020.

Despite it's origins, teachers, professors, and the larger academic community quickly embraced Wikipedia as an ultimate compendium of perfect truths. Nothing pleases an instructor more than seeing a reference to a Wikipedia article as a citation in a paper.
