May be it should not be people's first stop. If any one uses Wikipedia in an argument I ask for an authoritative source.


It's an encyclopedia. Would you use Britannica for an argument? No. You would use whatever materials it cites. Wikipedia is the starting point for an argument, not the evidence to support one.


Yes. But 'should' is not 'is'.
