Why is there no alternative to Wikipedia? There exists many wiki sites devoted to various special-interest topics, but nothing that tries to provide the kind of wide-ranging general-interest coverage that Wikipedia does. (at least that I am aware of.) It would seem that enough people are unhappy with the way Wikipedia is managed that someone would figure out a way to get something started.

I think a site that feeds me an ad for Nazi Twitter on the first page counts as 'special interest'.

Forgive me if I don't link it, but there is an alternative to the "liberal facts" presented on Wikipedia.

If you want the alt-truth about things like evolution and the Obama administration, I'm sure you can find the site with a few choice keywords. Did you know that abortion causes breast cancer?

Oops, I just vomited a little, sorry about that.
