{{cquote|I am an English teacher, currently teaching 6th grade. I have introduced Wikipedia to my students, encouraging them to explore the world through this amazing portal, this "Encyclopedia Galactica!" We've even discussed the possibility that, one day, if/when extraterrestrials finally connect with us, hopefully they'll post their knowledge on Wikipedia too! |
|||
And I've showed them the Pitot House entry, and the fact that third graders began it. They were quite impressed, and not a few of them aspire to be part of the Wikipedia community of contributors--now, and as they continue to grow and learn throughout life. |

You inspire us all! Thank you.}} |

{{cquote|I have been using Wikipedia since high school. It has been a great resource for expanding my general knowledge of the world, and as it is well maintained by a responsible group of individuals it provides an accurate and readily available source for knowledge. It has been helpful in providing background and sources for many papers and projects and has been an invaluable and supportive resource in my education. I thank Wikipedia's founders and its employees for maintaining their commitment to this great creation. I wish Wikipedia further success and I only hope it grows bigger and stronger in the future. As my friends and I always say when we get good grades back from teachers and professors, "Viva La Wiki!"}} |
