Wiki-d
by Duncan O'Leary
Contintuing the theme of the take-up new ideas/technology, I meant to write a post the other day about my brother getting panned by his tutor at university for referencing wikipedia in one of his essays. He was told that anyone can write on it and it's insufficuently regulated, so you never know whether it's accurate or not (despite recent evidence to the suggesting the opposite). I wonder if/when it will become acceptable to use it in academic circles..?
