{{cquote|I love Wikipedia because I love knowledge. What I love just as much is the pursuit of knowledge, its improvement and refinement. Wikipedia is not only a repository of knowledge, but a place where people around the world can discuss how to present it the most accurate, thorough and unbiased manner possible. And, though its articles are far from perfect, the standard of thorough citation of sources makes it possible for the reader to evaluate Wikipedia's report with reference to independent sources -- or to doubt it based on those sources or lack of sourcing. |
