Wikipedia
Wikipedia has an inherent 'reliability gap' in comparison to paper encyclopedias in that, at any given time, information which hasn't been verified could be included in a Wikipedia articleIt can never be as certain as an unchanging printed article that has been gone over in detail by fact checkers (Wikipedia, 2009) Tell a lie enough times and it becomes accepted as fact. But to really lie, you need a computer and Wikipedia (Purtilo, 2007)

When to Stop?
Does the new information repeat what I already have? Is the information I am finding now irrelevant? Does the information I have cover the core material required? Am I becoming overwhelmed? Have I run out of time? Is the information I have at the right depth/level? Is the information I have as up-to-date as possible? Do I have quality information?
