At Purdue, we pushed the envelope even further. We do not use Wikipedia because we have created our own wiki for many classes. In addition, Wikipedia is treated as a search engine. No citation can be attributed to Wikipedia, only to the articles used by Wikipedia editors for justifying their contributions. See http://purdue.iso...ikipedia
