{{cquote|I am really grateful to the site for simplifying life, and for all the people who have taken the tie to contribute and edit. As a student, I often check your site for a basic understanding of the subject matter either before or after i plow through the scholarly sources, which often are not written with the average reader in mind. As well as appreciating you as my encyclopedic source, your biographic resources are the best overview's I've found. I am happy to contribute to keep you free of capitalistic bias. Thank you again for YOUR creative contribution!}} |

{{cquote|As a professor I often require students to read peer-reviewed papers that often have terms which have long been forgotten; the reward for the frequent reviewing and limited rote-memory techniques employed in our education system. Because of this, I encourage opening a tab to Wikipedia to aid in understanding the paper. I also encourage "clicking the blue links" to further expand understanding. Miss a word--lose a lot!! As such, I am profoundly thankful to Wikipedia for helping me help others.}} |
