Are you being serious or facetious? I actually have to make an argument in order for it to be an anecdotal fallacy.....as in I need to argue that an isolated incidence implies some general truth. I just made the simple observation that I've seen an academic cite wikipedia...not that this means academics cite wikipedia all the time.

I mean.....I actually mentioned I was surprised that the book cited wikipedia.....because I've never seen another academic work cite wikipedia.

If you weren't making a counter-argument, then why bring it up at all? Pointless.

 

 

Its just called conversation......not everything has to be so heated. I was just mentioning an interesting observation, nothing more.
