NuPedia

Nupedia (http://www.nupedia.com/) is soon to become the greatest EncycloPedia in HisTory, because of its essential features, viz., it is: OpenContent, free, freely-distributable, rigorously PeerReview?ed, international, unbiased, and in the fullness of time, comprehensive.

Yea, but, what's stopping someone putting CRAP in it? Who is the expert and how are you gunna get a good expert for nuthing?

eh?

Face it, Encyclopaedias are full of old news anyhow. What we need is a collectively inspired Arthur C Clark.
