{{cquote|Wikipedia is a miracle. It is the power of millions of individuals contributing, sharing, giving to a pool of knowledge that is free to everyone with the internet. I trust Wikipedia over private encyclopedias because, we, as citizens of the world, "police" the site and can protest information we find inaccurate. There is no other reference site that allows us to do this. We are all essentially editors, participants and recipients of this miracle. Thank you, Jimmy Wales! }}

{{cquote|Whenever I want to research a topic or look up historical or biographical information, Wikipedia is normally my first and preferred destination on the Internet. Wikipedia is very good at providing intelligent summaries and high level overview of various topics, and is an excellent starting point for many research projects. Wikipedia is one of the most valuable assets on the Internet and is an exemplary model of quality through collaboration at no cost to users. I also love the fact that Wikipedia does not rely on advertisements for revenue (haven't seen any yet).}}
