{{cquote| I do research, well, on just about everything. With more search engines trying to 'steer' the reader to specific sites and 'sell' an idea or product along with the information, I find I rely more and more heavily on the 'pure' info supplied by Wikipedia. I especially like all the URL links for further investigation and am always assured that the information supplied is: 1) easy to access 2) as accurate and up to date as information can be these days 3) free of time-wasting pop-ups, ads and 'filtering' and 4) provides esoteric, quantitative, qualitative and difficult-to-find information on a wealth of subjects not found anywhere else. My heart-felt thanks to Jimmy Wales for his vision, to all at Wikipedia, and to all the contributors who make this possible.}} |

{{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! |
