Unreliable Sources

These web sites may be repositories of non-authoritative or self-published material or research. Just because a citation is from one of these web sites does not make it non-citable, but probably means it warrants slightly more careful investigation to make sure it is credible. Perhaps being on this list might be equated to a "go slow" sign.
