Let me know if that needs clarification.
I would certainly hope so, as no college-level work should be using tertiary sources, whether Wikipedia, another encyclopedia ..., a textbook, or some other work, for cited
Interesting. A remarkable insight. So not only is Wikipedia not NPOV or trustable, but it's OK because encylopedias, including textbooks, in general are not considered reliable sources by higher education. Could I get the references that showed that consensus among professors also refused other encyclopedias and not just Wikipedia? Do they have any findings with regard to other reference sources, such as textbooks and dictionaries?
