I am a third year student at the University of Ottawa. I am a communications student currently part-taking in a course called Theories of the Media (CMN2160A). Our large assignment in this course is to contribute to Wikipedia articles. As well as to write a paper on the assignment and tie it back to theories we have discussed in class this year. Personally, I think that large databases such as this one are a great way to access information quickly, however, they need to be used with caution. The fact that anyone can change these entries reduces the credibility of the information provided. I feel like this point has resonated with many academic institutions in the sense that Wikipedia is not a reliable source for research papers or essays. Regardless, Wikipedia is a great tool to access free information at any time. I look forward to editing certain documents myself.
