Hi,

I am Joost Ringoot.

Being a part-time student, I find Wikipedia a very useful source for finding and sharing information.

:Sigh: I wish linking was automagic in Wikipedia

Alas many teachers find Wikipedia articles are an unreliable source to mention in projects as a reference.

It is a fact that Wikipedia is not fault-proof.

But I believe that this could improve a lot by more involvement of academic staff in the project.

Researchers please put your research results on-line in Wikipedia!

Being a full-time employed IT-engineer I find Wikipedia very useful for looking up info quickly and better organised than using a search engine.

Starting at Wikipedia one can dig deeper into info via internal links or external references to people and companies more closely involved in the concerning subject.

----

And best of all, it's free and open!

So a big "thumbs up" for Wikipedia!
