Wikipedia
In the week 5 lecture the main topic were concerned with the reliability of wikipedia and "Reality". It was Plato who expressed the notion of "Reality is expressed in hidden focus". Aristottle, Plato's appentice went on to continues his research in this field. Margret Weathemin claimed Humans are Bipolar - Body and Mind.
The weakness of Wikipedia was revealed through an article we were shown about the lecturer Steven Stockwell. The article in question was a complete lie, made up by on of Stockwell's previous students. This proved that it is possible to write untrue facts on Wikipedia making it an unreliable website for academic purposes.
