The fork was not a dump of all 5 million English-language articles but rather started slowly with only some content being ported over to the new project. For instance, three weeks after the project launched, there were only 500 articles that had been copied from Wikipedia.

Infogalactic is an online encyclopedia. It is a fork of the English Wikipedia, which means that its content was derived from a previous copy of Wikipedia, but has diverged from it over time. Infogalactic intends to differ from Wikipedia by claiming to not possess the bias and bureaucracy of Wikipedia. However, the site was founded by conservative and alt-right people aiming for a conservative bias, so, much like Conservapedia, or even Metapedia in the case of the alt-right and extreme right, Infogalactic is trying to cater to that conservative audience. Though quite a few articles are copies of Wikipedia, the editors are slowly drizzling that right-wing bias onto Infogalactic's articles.
