I'm to lazy to read the 100 pg. long http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:REF#Putting_together_the_citation

So how bout some one will just summarize it for me for 10 points!? :) Or just give me an example?

Thanks,
Daniel

They say practice makes perfect. I wish they would make up their minds.

I wouldn't do it, some teachers see that you referenced Wikipedia and will throw the paper in the trash.

Anyone on Wikipedia can type anything, I wouldn't trust it for absolutely anything.
