Planned server upgrade

There will be a brief disruption of service on Tuesday 7/21/2020 while the Citizendium hardware is upgraded. An announcement will appear here after the server has been upgraded.

A 15-year experiment in a Wikipedia-like setting

Welcome to Citizendium, a wiki for providing free knowledge where authors use their real, verified names. We welcome anyone who wants to share their knowledge by writing and improving articles on virtually any subject.

This wiki was unsuccessful in achieving its original goals (see https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-difference-between-Wikipedia-and-Citizendium). A dedicated few writers have continued working in the wiki, improving articles that they believe are useful, and which for various reasons probably could not be written in Wikipedia. On or about Sept. 30, 2020, we plan to end Citizendium as a public "open" project, yet (possibly) keep the wiki running and editable by a combination of donations and subscriptions. How this might occur is still being examined.

See Recent Changes—an overview of articles we are writing now.
