I'd like to see the discussion return to the original post - alternatives to wikipedia. List alternatives to wikipedia with their pros and cons.
Wikipedia
Has all of the search engine reach
Posters can't control their things
Everyone is anonymous or pseudonymous
The president of the site tends to lie a lot
Wikipedia Review
Has a decent search engine reach
Posters have very good control on their things
People generally use their real name, and the founder is known and has good credentials for the project
The founder looks honest so far
Everything2
Has a decent search engine reach because it has been online since 1999
Posters control what they write, and can only modify their own stuff
Everyone can be anonymous or pseudonymous, and the founder's name and credentials are known
No comments on the founder
Encyc
Has poor search engine reach so far
Posters can control their things somewhat
Most contributors are anonymous or pseudonymous, including the founder
