(单词翻译)

 Reference books and encyclopedias1 were once the gold standard for finding reference information. They provided peer reviewed and fact checked data on a vast array of subjects. They just aren't as convenient and rapidly updated as search engines, digital reference materials, and databases.

 
That said, the results of information derived2 from digital sources aren't always reliable. Their information is limited by the review process. No one wants to be embarrassed by regurgitating false information.
 
It's taken time, but most people now realize that wiki retrieved3 data comes with a caveat4. To make certain you're disseminating5 factual information, make an effort to strictly6 utilize7 reputable and reliable sources.
