Tips for Wise Wikipedia Use
- Be aware that anyone can edit entries in Wikipedia.

- Pay attention to the alert boxes and symbols. "Featured Articles" have a star to indicate their high quality; articles that are in need of updating (e.g. citation needed, newly available information, relies too much on primary sources) will be marked at the top of the page.
