I suspect that most of such critics have reached the conclusion that a wiki is not a suitable way of creating an encyclopedia. It does seem to me that most of this discussion is predicated on the assumption that Otherpedia.org will be a wiki and will be free-use. I strongly suspect that anything that starts from that basis will be too much like wikipedia to be anything more than a small-player in some niche.

There actually is something in the works right now, Doc. It's being supported by a foundation, a professional association and a university. It will be ready to go in about six months.
