Because I said I would

I vaguely recall at some point over the last week trying to relate to somebody the half-remembered details of a webcomic composed of victorian clip-art, and a particular strip of this comic which dealt with a pressing issue at hand. As you do.

I have located the webcomic, and indeed the strip in question.

I cite wikipedia as a source.

Totally tangentially...

So many of them have started doing so that I now have to specifically tell my students in advance that Wikipedia is not an "academic source" they can cite in their essays.

Well, quite. Which is, of course, exactly why Wikipedia started demanding that people cite their sources.
