the best usage of wikipedia

Finding meaning or learning more about objects or who made it something like that. sometimes im using it for projects in school.

I always check Wikipedia about an old song that I have just encountered. I also do the same with movies. That way I learn about them easily like who directed them, who produced them. I'm quite observant when it comes to these.

It's free unlike many other online encyclopedia though they exist wikipedia is the one commonly used.

Actually, I think it's getting more complete with the collaborative efforts of many individuals. Although some people may view it as not the most reliable source, I think it's becoming better in the long run considering that most scholarly articles are written only by limited number of people but wikipedia has the exposure to any number of people, of which many may be very talented.

I personally think that the most beneficial use of Wikipedia would be to refer to the sources and/or references at the bottom of each article.
