	'''Libertapedia''' is "the libertarian encyclopedia". The site, founded in {{tag\|FoundedIn2004\|2004}} as LibertarianWiki.org by Paul Studier, described itself as a "clearinghouse of useful information for {{tag\|libertarian}} {{tag\|activists}}" in the {{tag\|United States}}, and was intended to facilitate collaboration on real-world campaigns and other projects, but is now segueing to a more encyclopedia-like format. In {{tag\|FoundedIn2010\|2010}}, it switched from an exclusively {{tag\|Wiki Public Domain (generic)\|Public Domain}} license to a Public Domain/[[:Category:Wiki Creative Commons\|Creative Commons]] ({{tag\|Wiki Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike\|Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike}}) hybrid that allows for content to be brought in from [[:Category:Wikipedia\|Wikipedia]]. In 2010, a new site owner, Nathan Larson, took over and it was moved to Libertapedia.org. Beginning in 2011, it went down with database errors and was not resurrected until mid-2012.
