The internet is a place of what seems full of limitless knowledge. It can make finding sources to use in papers easier and more accessible, but the reliability can often be called into question.
There are a few ways to determine whether a website is reliable or if one website is more reliable over another. The first thing the researcher will notice is the view of the website; "Does this look like it was well put together?", or, "Is this website sketchy?", would be some questions that should be answered after viewing the website. Is the author of the article or source someone who is qualified to provide the information for what you are researching?
Online databases are a reliable source to use because they are filled with scholarly articles. When searching for articles you do not want to use sources that are biased on the subject. It has often been said that Wikipedia is not a reputable source because it is edited by random people who may not be qualified. This may change soon though because the editors have the uncanny ability to find errors in articles and have them fixed.
