Wikipedia Correction Gets Dangerous

remember kids, i better not see you using wikipedia as your source —that is not a reliable source teachers everywhere well well well... no no no, no please, i was just making a correction i do! i do, i do, i promise i do! doesn't look like it, buddy... say goodbye

A woman labeled “teachers everywhere” warns students not to use Wikipedia as a source, then notices someone editing or correcting it without a citation. The joke escalates into an absurd interrogation as she points a gun at herself, puts on sunglasses, and ominously demands a source before saying goodbye. The tense Mindhunter-style music makes the harmless academic correction feel like a serious crime thriller.

Remember kids, I better not see you using Wikipedia as your source. That is not a reliable source. Well, well, well. Making changes, are we? No, no, no, no, please. I was just making a correction. And do you have a source? Doesn't look like it, buddy. Say goodbye.
