Citizendium

Citizendium er et engelsksproget wikibaseret frit encyclopædiprojekt med Larry Sanger, som var med til at grundlægge Wikipedia i 2001,[1][2] i spidsen. Projektet forsøger at forbedre Wikipediamodellen ved at udvikle en "troværdig" encyklopædi.[3] Det håber at opnå dette ved at lade alle bidragerne bruge deres eget navn, og derved holde uprofessionelle væk. Derudover arbejdes der med "godkendte artikler", som har gennemgået en form for eftersyn af eksperter inden for det specifikke område.

Pr. 27. oktober 2011 havde Citizendium færre end 100 aktive medlemmer.[4] Websitet havde i august 2013 16.484 artikler, hvoraf 165 havde opnået godkendelse af andre brugere, og omkring 10 brugere foretog mindst 20 redigeringer om måneden.[5] Ledende redaktør var Anthony Sebastian, der trak sig tilbage i 2016 uden at en afløser blev udpeget.[6]

The nascent Web encyclopedia Citizendium springs from Larry Sanger, a philosophy Ph.D. who counts himself as a co-founder of Wikipedia, the site he now hopes to usurp. The claim doesn't seem particularly controversial — Sanger has long been cited as a co-founder. Yet the other founder, Jimmy Wales, isn't happy about it ... Wales insists that Sanger was a subordinate employee of his, and by that measure, 20 other people would deserve co-founder status. Wales claims Sanger wrote those early news releases to inflate his role; Sanger responds that Wales approved the releases.

Although his main claim to fame is as the co-founder, along with Jimmy Wales, of Wikipedia, that is just one of several projects to produce large-scale, systematic stores of human knowledge he has been involved in. [Jimmy Wales] saw that I was essentially looking for employment online and he was looking for someone to lead Nupedia...
