It is generally not recommended to cite an encyclopedia in academic papers, as they are considered secondary sources containing general knowledge. It is better to cite primary sources or scholarly articles for more authoritative and in-depth information. If you must use an encyclopedia for background information, try to verify the information with other more credible sources.

Would you submit a paper to your instructor that cites a wiki as a source?
It would be a rare occurrence to cite sources that are non peer reviewed within an essay but that does not mean it should never happen. If a wiki puts forward a popular point of view, perhaps a reference to it might be appropriate to show that the point of view exists. To cite a wiki to support arguments set out in the paper would be unlikely to impress an instructor. There are almost always better sources to cite and if there aren't, it is worth considering why no other source has the same view.
