Wikipedia! If you have to search for any information online, then you can get explained information from it, i.e., Wikipedia. We can get many knowledgeable facts from this encyclopedia, Wikipedia. But sometime, we can’t entirely depend upon the information that is found in Wikipedia because anyone can edit the page of Wikipedia and forward it to the public along with their report which may not be reliable and applicable.  Sometimes, the editing of news of Wikipedia is also done with the help of online robots. That’s why, you must not be utterly dependent upon the news and information while carrying out any official, educational as well as report collection activities.

However, we can’t say that all the information and facts of Wikipedia are incorrect and unreliable. If you find any blue signal in the data which releases the appropriate source of data, then you can be sure that the data is necessary. The cause of some data or information might also be given at the end of the report. Sometime, you may see some pages containing one star in Wikipedia. These pages are considered as the pages containing most applicable and reliable information as well as the pages containing the appropriate source of data which is also known as Featured Article Page. You can use the knowledge of such pages without any doubt.

Next problem also may arise while getting the information from Wikipedia. The website and the journalists also take information from Wikipedia and publish it. During our search, we may find some information from newspapers and Wikipedia. So, compulsorily look on the site of the data if you search for any news and information. This informs us about the source of data. Carefully using the data helps to prevent this problem. You can find the detail information about history, revision page, etc. in Wikipedia. Also, you can see or locate the continuous changes that are taking place in the news.

Wikipedia is available in 293 languages whole over the world. So, it is one of the universally popularized biggest encyclopediae, and corers of people are using it regularly for various purposes.
