As a very small part-time faculty in Pune University for M Sc Defence
Studies students, I can tell you that virtually any and every assgnment has
nothing worthwhile to find in the course textbooks but lots in Wikipedia.
My two bits.
Warm regards,
Ashwin Baindur

The figures might be misleading but they support my earlier theory

If I had a rupee for every time I saw a 'paper' or 'presentation' from
a student who had 'forgotten' to remove the [citation needed] and
numbered inline references when they copy pasted from Wikipedia, WMF
