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

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 [[:Category:United States|US]] perspective, therefore not representing a [[:Category:Earth|worldview]]. | In reality, calling Encyc an 'encylopedia' is very optomistic, as most articles are merely one or two line opinions without any citations or references.

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. | This original [https://archive.is/Ozbgr<!--http://Encyc.org/PmWiki/PmWiki--> PmWiki] version of Encyc has been {{tag|GoalAbandoned|abandoned}}.
