<p>JHS - no one is saying that using Wiki with full dislosure is plagarism - I’m just saying that there are far better and more legitimate sources out there to use for a research paper, essay, speech, etc. But that’s my opinion and the opinion of many of the professors that I have come in contact with in my job.</p>
<p>As for plagarism, if you put information from a source in a paper and don’t cite the source, no matter where it comes from, it’s plagarism, plain and simple, in my book. </p>
<p>Many of our teachers here are having the students submit their papers to websites that evalute the papers for % plagarism before they submit a final draft.</p>
