Learning about websites

Today in class we learned about if a website is true and has correct information or not. I learned that Wikipedia is one of the best websites to get your information from. That is because it has a large variety of information. Also it is very up to date and the information is reliable. One bad thing is people can post anything on it but it is constantly checked. So if anyone posts anything wrong it will be fixed very quickly. We also talked about how to tell if it is a good website. For example if the website doesn't have an email or a way to contact them then it could be fake information. Also if the website isn't sponsored by a reputable organization then it could also be false. Also you can tell by who published it so if you have never heard or not sure if it is a good publisher than don't use it. So i learned you can never trust every website that comes up first on the list.
