The schools won't allow my kids to use Wikipedia as a source - so yeah. (this is despite the fact that Wikipedia got more strict with allowing people to comment and that they require references)

You're just mad I didn't trust your article




> The schools won't allow my kids to use Wikipedia as a source

Would they allow your kids to use Wikipedia's own sources — as long as they're legitimate — as their sources?

I do not trust traditional journalism as a source either (unlike Wikipedia and most schools). I try to find their sources; and when I can't, I regard it with suspicion.

This is either incredibly childish or too subtly tongue-in-cheek for me. Neither is the article "mine" in any way, nor was I "mad". I was genuinely curious.
