Like we always say:

Banned encyclopedias are banned for good reasons.

Or better yet, "properly/justly banned".

Oh, I was copying the style of a favorite B00ble Quotation on the Wikienlist.

How is this really news? Using any encyclopedia is strongly discouraged even in High School. You'd think that every academic institution would've done this years ago.

Anyhow, anybody citing encyclopedias in college level papers should probably research a little harder.
