{{cquote| I'm a graduate student in electrical engineering at Stanford University. Wikipedia has helped me a countless number of times in expanding my knowledge of electrical engineering, computer science, mathematics, physics, and chemistry. Besides this, it provides a ton of knowledge on a variety of different fields, ranging from sciences to the fine arts to the absurd. There isn't a cheaper resource available to students like me on the internet, and I'm beyond grateful for the number of times it's helped me. |

To those who may believe Wikipedia to be an inaccurate source of information, I must say that beyond fields that are under political or personal influences and agendas, Wikipedia has provided reliable, solid information on a variety of advanced topics. Even on topics that are regularly influenced by opinion, I've known Wikipedia takes a strongly neutral stance, owing to the dedicated editors that monitor its pages.}} |

{{cquote|As a person who logs into Wikipedia first thing when he needs information, I feel it’s a moral duty to keep this wealth of information there, and as an engineer who gains money and affords to pay I feel it’s a responsibility to support this pool of knowledge so it’s still there for the students and for our sons and daughters. |
