    Unfortunately they can’t quote Wikipedia directly in their work, but they can use the sources in the article.

      Wut? I think the South African report is the source for Wikipedia.

        It’s a joke about how you can’t quote Wikipedia directly in papers, etc.

          I imagine you actually could count their ruling as it’s an original work, based on research from other papers. Which I find kind of funny, because that would mess up so many professors…
