Wikipedia is free, so why not use it when is needed. How to search popular people or authors for MLA Format on Wikipedia has been a challenge. First step what I will do is to get on Google and search for any article on Wikipedia, and use Google cache; I don’t know why I always make that first steps. Must people will go straight to Wikipedia web. Then I click on Wikipedia remember fill free to choose your languages you wish to use. Click on Wikipedia home page on the right hand, you will see Arts, Biography, Geography, History, etc.
Wikipedia articles generally have many authors, different dates. For this reason, it is recommended that citations of Wikipedia give the author as "Wikipedia contributors".Always use your judgment when deciding whether to use any source. Wikipedia sometimes can change date so be careful.
At the top of the article is a tab that says "history". Click on it and you will see all the revisions of the article over time, along with who did them or write your author’s name you wish to fine on Wikipedia search box or type the book name along. There you will find background information on the subject of your paper. Have hyperlinks in the text, so you can find it out about related subjects. Many articles have cited references that you can follow for more information. While Wikipedia may not be reliable, the sources that editors cite are often reliable. For most assignments, your instructor will want you to use sources for your citation.
Than you will look on your right hand you will see the picture of your author, name, or book cover.
