Who cares? All you've done is pointed out to more people that they can infact easily edit it.

Well what I meant was that the articles that google scholar finds are mostly academic, google scholar itself holds no information as it is merely a search engine.
I know it's just a search engine :p What I meant was you need to find, I suppose, an "original" of the article, rather than citing the article as linked via the google scholar search :) Lecturers in the past have said if you only refer to/use/cite the article as you find it on google scholar, they won't accept it since the majority of teh time, google scholar provides abridged versions/abstracts/ the first page not the whole article - that's what i meant.

Okay, thats fairly insightful to those not familar with googlescholar, and I suppose that we are getting off topic.
