wikipedia a valid authoritative and useful reference source or not

Comparison Topic: “Decembrists”

Many students assume that the online, free encyclopedia, Wikipedia (Links to an external site.) is a valid, authoritative and useful reference source for their scholarly work as a student at NVCC. Many teachers say that Wikipedia is garbage and should never be used. Which is it?

In this assignment, we will be examining just how authoritative (and stable) Wikipedia (aka wiki) is. First, you will examine a specific entry from Wikipedia and check for changes that have occurred over a period of six months, and then you will compare the information from the Wikipedia entry with the information from an established reference source such as the Encyclopedia Britannica (EB).

Since you may have never really looked carefully at a Wikipedia entry, I want you first to look at my Explanation of Using Wikipedia (Links to an external site.)before you start this paper assignment.

    1. For your comparison of a Wikipedia entry with the same entry in EB, you should choose a research term that is in some way relevant to the material that you have covered in your course, and that term must be clear, focused and doable.

    Your Wikipedia Analysis paper must follow this format:

    • font size 10 or 12 only
    • one-inch margins
    • double-spaced
    • page number citations for your quoted evidence
    • not to exceed one (2) pages
    • name at the top left
    • must have brief introduction and conclusion paragraphs (each not to exceed three lines)
