Of course, you should never rely on Wikipedia to be 100% accurate...but you can certainly use it to find good sources, since reliable information on Wiki, just like elsewhere, will be cited. For example, I wrote a panel paper on Ko Hung and used the Wikipedia page to find articles in journals about Ko Hung, since the page had the articles cited. Articles in peer-reviewed journals=valid, Wikipedia=not always valid, but articles in peer-reviewed journals cited on Wikipedia page=valid, and a quick and easy way to find relevant articles without a lot of rummaging through JSTOR or similar. ....anyways, that was a lot more than I meant to say here. JEN-CHAN I MISS YOU, YOU BETTER BE HERE THURSDAY BEFORE I GRADUATES OK?
