Do you really think the 40K most important Wikipedia articles are more useful than a set of high school textbooks? Wikipedia is sometimes good for getting answers to specific questions, or as a place to find out what you don't know so you can then check other resources to learn it. But it can't replace a good textbook for learning something from scratch. Really, no encyclopedia can. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
