__TOC__
== Summary ==
''The Skeptic's Dictionary'' is a book by [[Robert Todd Carroll]] that expanded into a website. The website is a [[WP:SPS|self-published source]] (by a subject-matter expert) and should not be used as a source of information on [[WP:BLPSPS|other living persons]]. [[WP:INTEXT|Attribution]] may be necessary. In some cases, it's preferable to read and cite the sources cited by ''The Skeptic's Dictionary''. As it often covers [[WP:FRINGE|fringe]] material, [[WP:PARITY|parity of sources]] may be relevant.
