I use it for research.It has abundant knowledge for just about every subject I need.Though I do find errors on it sometimes but, you can't beat it.Its not the last resource I use but, it is a always start.

I use Wikipedia pretty often, both as a reader and as an editor

Yeh it's set to true, but as I said Quick Searches folder isn't there, but it doesn't matter...

well, you could check about:config and see if "keyword.enabled" is true... but if it already is, then oh well. you're welcome anyway. :)

Hmm... I don't think I deleated it, I don't think I deleated any of the default bookmarks, but it's not there.
But it doesn't really matter, sense as I said, I enjoy typing it in fully :D.
Thanks for the help anyway.

well, it won't work if you've deleted the "Quick Searches" bookmark folder that firefox comes with by default - cuz that's where the responsible bookmark would be located.

@ Garrett
I have just tried what you said below, and I have tried it with ever possible combination of using the " or not, and using the < & > or not, and each time it led me to a Live Search page.

@ Garrett
Thanks for that information, I really didn't know it, but I prefer to type it in manually, I'm not sure why, I suppose I find it fun...
And I know that there isn't the www. but it still works if you type that in, so I type that in :D

@Zagorath: if you're using Firefox, you should know that it comes with a quick shortcut for searching Wikipedia: just type "wp <yoursearchquery>" in the address bar.
also, there is no "www" before "en.wikipedia.org".
