How would you cite Wikipedia?

"Blah blah blah" (Wikipedia)

or

"Blah blah blah" (2007 Wikipedia)

...

I wouldn't use Wikipedia as a reference, however, you could use some of the references from Wikipedia. Wikipedia is full of mistakes. Don't ever use it as a reference.

Wikipedia is not to be used as a source for academia.

If this is for school, talk to your teacher first. Most teachers are not allowing wikipedia to be used as a reference because the information can be edited by any user and is therefore unreliable.

You wouldn't.

wiki is garbage and no credible teacher would accept wiki as a reference.
