It concludes that, The quality of evidence taken obtained from the 2500 plus references from over 50 wikipedia pages was of sufficiently sound quality to suggest that, for health related entries, wikipedia is appropriate for use by nursing students. My colleagues and I accompanied by the university lecturers are just off down the pub!
