This is the original '''Encyc''' wiki, located at Encyc.org/pmwiki, which ran on the {{tag|PmWiki}} wiki engine. Encyc is a collaborative {{tag|encyclopedia}} similar to [[:Category:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]].  There are less rules on Encyc, though.

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  It has been replaced by a [[Encyc (MediaWiki)|MediaWiki version]] as found [http://encyc.org/wiki here]. In 2019, that version became restricted and users could neither edit nor view the content.

This original [https://archive.is/Ozbgr<!--http://Encyc.org/PmWiki/PmWiki--> PmWiki] version of Encyc has been {{tag|GoalAbandoned|abandoned}}. It remained live, and in {{tag|ReadOnly|read-only}} mode (although it still received occasional [[edit]]s from the site [[sysop|administrators]]).  It was replaced by a [[Encyc (MediaWiki)|MediaWiki version]] as found at <tt>https://Encyc.org/wiki</tt>.  In 2019, that version became restricted and [[user]]s could neither edit nor view the content.  However, as of May 2021, the MediaWiki version returned to a fully functional site, with all pages viewable and editable.
