Considering the hundreds of academic sources and papers that all of these pages draw from and use, the accuracy of complicated concepts tending to be much higher than simple ones on Wikipedia, and the fact that I could not gain access to the sources used nor understand them, I believe that using Wikipedia both as a source and as a means of reaching the original sources is validated for this particular project. If I had the background to understand the material and free access to it, I would have used them. But since my knowledge of these topics is so limited, I had to work with what I was given.
