Thing #10 - Wikis

Well, this was much easier than Thing #9. I took a chance and left my mark on the 23 Things on a Stick wiki with some words of wisdom. I think some of the reasons that teachers ban Wikipedia as a source for student research is 1) the fact that wikis are so incredibly easy to edit/add onto that without proper supervision the wiki can get completely out of control, 2) the wiki entries can have contradictory information in them (I've seen this one first hand) and 3) Wikipedia can get incredibly long-winded at times. With proper supervision, like the SYSOPS of old, wikis can be an incredibly useful tool.
