Is Wikipedia a good source for research papers ? Yes Wikipedia is a good source for students to go and find information to help them go and find better sites for information for a research paper. Wikipedia has 125 different languages this allows people from different countries to read the articles on wikipedia. Wikipedia is good because it has hundreds of people helping out fixing anything that is wrong or misleading this happens often within a couple of minutes. If you visit a wiki article that many people visit then there is a less likely chance that there would be any errors on that article then another article that less people visit. A majority of edits are made for the better good of wikipedia. If the reader finds a fact that isn't right or is misleading they can fix it. I can see the view for people that say that wikipedia is bad but it can help people find information for more stuff on the subject they are searching for. Yes Wikipedia is a good source for help find better sites and a starter for research papers.
