- The following discussion is an archived proposal of the WikiProject below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the project's talk page (if created) or the WikiProject Council). No further edits should be made to this page.
The proposed WikiProject was not created.
Description[edit]
A WikiProject to track the work of online encyclopedias that claim to be alternatives to Wikipedia (e.g.: Citizendium and Scholarpedia to name those I am aware of). The goal of the project would be to identify ways to improve WP articles following a comparative evaluation of quality corresponding articles (assuming there is something to improve of course). Ultimately, once we have found a good way of doing this and if we are satisfied with initial results, the job could be distributed among the various WikiProjects willing to participate.

Discussion[edit]
You might consider some of the existing projects, like WP:WikiProject Internet culture or WP:WikiProject Websites, but yo'e probably looking for Wikipedia:Mirrors and forks, rather than a WikiProject. WhatamIdoing (talk) 22:35, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
