Once you think it through, it becomes clear why Wikipedia cannot be used as 
a source.

That's because it isn't a source.  It's millions of sources, some competent 
and some not competent, gathered together with no clear, consistent rules or 
editing.

You can use a source if it's been proven to be consistently correct. 
Wikipedia isn't a single source, and has proven *not* to be consistently 
correct.
