Wikip-uh, oh.

So Wikipedia, the preferred online stepping stone (and unfortunately for some, sole research tool) for many has been targeted by malicious virus propagation techniques. Luckily, Wikipedia is right on the ball and patrols edited pages fiendishly. Personally, I'm just hoping that this isn't the beginning of the end for Wikipedia--I personally love its informality. If I hear a term I don't know anything about, I'll quickly look it up on there and have a better grasp of what it is. If I'm working on a paper or project and I have no idea where to begin, I'll start there and follow the bountiful collection of links provided on most pages to get me started. It's invaluable, and I only hope these virus creators don't render it valueless.
