Wikipedia has a bad rumour at the Universities (at least in Sweden). But if we keep on working with that students, as a part of their education, write and edit articles in Wikipedia in a scientific way, I think we can change this.

Just I had a meeting with an it acadamic professionalist, the things got from Wikipedia are not accepted as valid. Because they say that enyone can edit wikipedia. That's the reason.But I said to that references are given to each points there and temples such as citation needed are put in WIKIPEDIA. What do you think about this? I am from srilanka.
