Why have only one option for an online encyclopedia? I'd rather have a healthy competitor.
As far as Wikipedia Review, it's focused on advertising and promotion. Also, its owner operator has anti-social tendencies and lashes out at anyone who doesn't see things exactly his way. So it doesn't seems like a very good option.
I think it's too bad there isn't a place without the abusive bureaucracy of Wikipedia where collegial encyclopedia builders can work together. If BLP issues are a concern or there are other problems on Wikipedia then it can simply be modeled differently. That's why I started this thread: to discuss the models that exist and their strengths and weaknesses.
There are some interesting set-ups and structures for encyclopedia type Wiki communities, although I haven't found one yet that's viable. So I was interested in seeing if there were people interested in discussing and possibly building a more moral and collegial Wikipedia variant.
Such a discussion is very possible. Now, who are you, again? I'd rather not be wasting my time on this with a teenager or with someone who's just trying to stir up a drama fest.
Anti-social tendencies? How'd I get these 322 friends on Facebook?
