 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.  Many articles are factually incorrect.

 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  It has been replaced by a [[Encyc (MediaWiki)|MediaWiki version]] as found [http://encyc.org/wiki here].
