Okay... I know you guys know what research is and how to research... I realized that researching is SERIOUS BUSINESS after our group's thesis proposal got approved. Let me say this. An undergraduate thesis is harder than a masteral's or doctoral's dissertation because no failures must occur in the thesis while a dissertation can be repeated until the results are perfect.

How is this related in the wiki? Well, I found misleading information in some pages. Here are some.

Power Lily. Just because it has lily in the name doesn't mean it is always an aquatic plant. Lilies are generally defined as any flowering plants that belong in the Lilium family. Being a non-aquatic plant uses this trait though it's design is may be based on the flower from aquatic lilies. But aquatic lilies like Lily Pad are not from the lilium family but are from Nymphaeaceae family.

Coffee Bean. Sure it has bean in its name so it must be related to Chili Bean and the like... Hahaha, wrong again! Coffee beans are just roasted seeds from the Coffee fruit, which are not legumes! I corrected a user on the comments about coffee and cocoa. Cocoa is a product derived from the cacao seeds while Cacao is the name and type of plant used to make chocolate products.

Minor grammar issues. Which is the correct way to state it, 'a one' or 'an one'? The correct answer is 'a one'. Using the articles a and an are based not the first letter on the next word but by how the initial phonetic is pronounced. 'One' is pronounce as /w^n/. To further clarify this, here are some correct statements: an hour, a half hour, an orb, a once in a lifetime.

Big Wave Beach. It stated that it will be released on October 1st. Wrong! No official confirmation was stated from PopCap. We still haven't obtained a Piñata Party about it. The PvZ2 anniversary is taking place until October 2! Don't rely on the codes from the game's files. Those are just preparations before the game content is officially released just like Dark Ages and Far Future.

So please, research your stuff before adding information. Don't let others get fooled like what happened at my country. A hoax about cosmic rays was spreading via text. I researched about this and it revealed that this hoax existed way back in 2008! The person behind this hoaxed even used the name of a reporter, BBC, and NASA in the text to make people believe even more. Ha! Sorry sir/maam, I'm not that gullible. In terms of science, I always need confirmation which reminds me, that girl colleague in my OJT was lying about eggplants having no nutritional value!
