No problem. It's not complete yet though, I'm trying to find some research sites for other subjects which are more specific.
Also, a few of the websites I've provided require a password. Some schools will have passwords for these, others won't... I've suggested people PM me for my school's pw if their school doesn't have one, however I don't know how this will work on viki?

Lol, Wikipedia isn't accepted as a reference by the majority of teachers.

it'll be along the lines of "requires subscription: contact your school to check your subscription details"
