Definitely a fork. Internet-Encyclopedia is an implementation of the wikipedia3 software that has different policies from Wikipedia. For example, rather than one article from a NPOV, Internet-Encyclopedia will have several articles from different points of view on a controverial subject. Also Internet-Encyclopedia is written in American English. There will also be more tolerance of material that Wikipedia editors would reject as creative or otherwise objectionable because of point of view, lack of scientific consensus, or simply shortness. Generally a much more relaxed attitude will be worked for (although what one gets in that department will depend on folks adopting one).
Then may I humbly suggest that you replace the work "Encyclopedia" (Circle of Human Knowledge") with a word or phrase that reflects a "Circle of Human Opinion". If you are rejecting the concept of "what is known to be true by the best means available to us at this time" then surely you ought to reject the name we use for that?
