{{cquote|I can't imagine not having Wikipedia as a reference tool. I can't recall one Google search I've done for a reference check that doesn't come up with Wikipedia in the first or second listing. It's invaluable to get facts I need when making a political point to my friends on Facebook. Some of them just spout off "facts" with no links. I, however, can document my statements with a link to Wikipedia and my argument is instantly more credible.}} |

{{cquote|I am an antiques dealer, often doing research trying to discover past history about items I have. I love history and Wikipedia has assisted often in discovering the past about historical items. Even though I am doing research to help sell the items I am researching, I often get absorbed into the history behind the item, its connection to people from the past, and how it might connect with someone or something in the present. Thanks for all the great volunteer work for this awesome resource! }} |
