I don't know.  My evidence is all anecdotal, but the vast majority of
what I hear from high school teachers about Wikipedia is playfully
derogatory.  Not that they're against Wikipedia, any more than they're
against Twitter or MySpace, but that they don't take it as a serious
source of information.  "I read it on Wikipedia" is taken as about
equivalent to "I read it on the Internet".
