When someone posts a Wikipedia link in these forums, it'll take me away from here for a while. Sometimes getting waaaaay off the original subject through links.

Am I the only one?

No, I suffer from the same Wikipediaaddictionism. But it's all in the name of learning largely useless and comletely random facts, so it's worth it. :cookie:

I have been guilty of this as well.

 
Nope, I usually don't even go to Wikipedia. Sometimes the information is useful, but I'll only read one or two paragraphs. Just be sure to take everything with a grain of salt on that site

I was doing a paper for skool on Cold War, looked on wikipedia for some info...ended up on the topic of Microprocessors and President Bush, how did I get there? (go figure 😉 )
 
I cited a Wikipedia article on chromatography one time in a research paper. No questions asked, got a good grade and all.
