The reason they are considered unreliable is that they are not peer-reviewed and, in the case of Wikipedia, anyone can add an entry or change an entry. Hence, these types of sources should not be cited in college-level research papers. However, you may find Wikipedia useful in finding other resources and links that are reputable and reliable. You will find these listed at the end of the entries.Prior to submitting, read the Researching Cancer Scoring Guide to ensure you have met all of the requirements for the assignment.Note: If you would like to take advantage of peer feedback before you submit this assignment, post your paper in the optional discussion in this unit. Provide questions, issues, or difficulties you may want your peers to specifically look at.
