Wikipedia is as what the name denotes. Wiki been an online, multilingual site for the community to upload and share their knowledge about certain topics of their choice with the rest of the world or whoever finds an interest in whatever topic is been discussed. Pedia been the end of encylopedia, which would denote that it is a source of definitions and information in all areas of knowledge. They are normally presented in alphabetical format, to make it easier to browse through quickly and effectively, but since Wikipedia is an online program topics can just be searched for either in Wikipedia’s site (which is not always advised due to the lack of decent results) or using search engines like Google for example.

Wikipedia is a multilingual, public web browser based enclyopedia whereby the general populous of the world may do research into just about any topic of their choice. Wikipedia was founded in 2001 by a man by the name of Jimmy Wales. Currently Wikipedia has about three million articles in about two hundred and fifty different languages,

Advantages of Wikipedia would include that since it is a public wiki just about anyone can update outdated information so it is more current. Although since just about anyone can update information on Wikipedia, it doesn’t do any justice to reliability on the information that is been presented.

Educationally Wikipedia is a good place to start the process. Although it would be recommended that if Wikipedia was to be used, utilize about two or more other sites to make the information more reliable and trust worthy.
