-In reality, calling Encyc an 'encylopedia' is very optomistic – as most articles are merely one or two line opinions without any citations or references.  Articles are written in a very basic low-level grammar, and are clearly written from a US perspective, therefore not representing a worldview.
-This original [http://encyc.org/PmWiki/PmWiki PmWiki] version of Encyc has been abandoned, but is still live, and in read-only mode (although it still receives occasional edits from the site [[sysop|administrators]]).  It has been replaced by a [[Encyc (MediaWiki)|MediaWiki version]] as found [http://encyc.org/wiki here].
