I tend to use Wikipedia for basic information, generally if I want to find out about a video game or anime series that I'm not familiar with at all. It's a good general resource, and I have added some of my web sites that have information about subjects I know to be correct (because it came from official sources), but that's mostly on games and other things. I'm an English major, I'd never use it as an actual source for anything.

For the most part, it's fairly accurate. Some of the people do have a grasp on what they write and if accurate details can be added later on, great. It's not the be-all and end-all of anything, but it's a useful tool for various things.

I don't consider it a viable source for information in regards to anything academic. Mainly because anyone can just write whatever the hell they want. You don't know where they got it, and I'm sure no one actually bothers to credit their sources. No matter how true something seems, it may be totally off base, which leads to you looking like an idiot in front of the teacher you try and pass the information off to in any form. Besides, if they know about wikipedia, they'll know if you copy and paste information directly from the site. Plagiarism, anyone?

There's nowhere I can't reach.
