Dear Wikimedians,
Two days ago, a participant in one of our edit-a-thons consulted ChatGPT
when writing an article on the Macedonian Wikipedia that did not exist on
any other language edition. ChatGPT provided some output, but the problem
was how to cite it.
The community on the Macedonian Wikipedia has not yet had a discussion on
this matter and we do not have any guidelines. So, my main questions are
the following:
* Can ChatGPT be used as a reliable source and, if yes, how would the
citation look like?
* Are there any ongoing community discussions on introducing guidelines?
My personal opinion is that ChatGPT should be avoided as a reliable source,
and only the original source where the algorithm gets the information from
should be used.
Best regards,
Kiril
