CPL 2.0 - Wikipedia :)

I absolutely love Wikipedia!
I’ve been using it for four or five years, and it’s always been a great help. Considering that you know what Wikipedia is and that you wouldn’t use it as the main or only source for your project, it is the best starting point for almost every search. Whenever I need to inform myself quickly and without much trouble, Wikipedia is there to help like nothing else. It is clear, intuitive and usually contains all main information about the subject. I tried editing in Wikipedia; I corrected the article about my home town. It was just a grammatical correction, but I got an idea how it works.

Were you able to find a topic obscure enough that Wikipedia doesn’t cover it? If so, congratulations! If you managed to publish an article, comment on the process.

Believe it or not, I was able to find some topics, usually on different people that weren’t covered, but although I’m a big fan of Wikipedia, I am not brave enough to write an article. I would always assume that there are other people out there who know the subject better than me.
