Week 3 Post - Wikipedia!

How easy or difficult was it to find articles that needed editing? Were the errors you found factual or grammar / spelling?

I found that for the most part, it was difficult to find articles that needed editing. The ones that I did find that needed editing were mostly due to grammatical and spelling errors. I think that Wikipedia is a great place to familiarize yourself with a certain topic or subject that you're interested it but it should not be cited as a primary source. Since Wikipedia can be created and edited by anyone, like you and me, what is written on the page may not be reliable.

(Oh and I also did a search for "Forest Lawn Library" in the search bar and nothing came up for it!)
